Case Summary

William Moore was jailed for unspecified reasons. He petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus, which was granted. The court scheduled a hearing for May 24, 1921 and allowed Moore to post a $100 bail. The scheduled hearing does not appear to have happened, however, and the court dismissed the cause two years later. Moore's fate is unknown.
