„Chaplin Case Has Hearing“

Editorial content. „Chaplin Case Has Hearing. A motion

to dismiss the application filed by Charles Chaplin against the

Essanay Film Manufacturing Company and the V-L-S-E

to restrain those corporations from distributing the Chaplin

burlesque on Carmen was made before Supreme

Court Justice Delehanty in Part I, Supreme Court, on Monday,

April 24. Decision in the case was withheld until the

court could decide some of the intricate legal questions

involved.“

      „Nathan Burkan appeared for Chaplin. William Seabury

represented the Essanay Company, arguing that the

case was one for the federal courts, as the defendant company

was an Illinois corporation. Walter W. Irwin appeared

for the V-L-S-E. Decision was reserved.“

      Court of New York against Charles Chaplin,

      amount of $500,000. The papers in the case were

      filed Monday, April 24.“
