No papers were filed on Mr. Lamb, and no charges made. Mr. Lamb appeared as requested and was ordered to pay $40 per month for the support of the child.

McKnight, enters a writ of prohibition in the District Court citing Judge Willis and Bylund to appear in court here Monday of this week and show cause why they should not be enjoined from further; interference in. the do mestic affairs of the Lambs.

Judge Burton found that the Juvenile officers and acted without any authority in taking the child and severely reprimanded Officer Bylund for his conduct; and unwarranted Interference in the domestic relations of Mr. and Mrs. Lamb, and that all acts of the Juvenile Court in the matter were null and void.
