The petition challenges legality on May 5 of the Bank of Spanish Fork issuing $2,000 on a $2500 promissary note not directly to Goshen City but to John Kirk, when not authorized by the mayor or town clerk, and action of the bank in refusing to accept return of $500, plus interest, on the same chase, note. The petition asked that a warranty deed on the building be found void because Clerk George Cook on May 16, against the ad ice of legal council for Goshen City and in violation of the mayor's orders, .but at the insistence of Councilman Clarence Kirk delivered the $2000 check to the councilmans brother, John. The plaintiffs challenged legality of the four board members, Kirk, Kay, White and Jensen, in without existing city ordinance depriving the mayor of right to sign checks, giving the function to Councilman White.

Jensen, a relative of board member Robert Jensen, submitted formal resignation, and indicated that, because of Utah Nepotism law, he does not wish al to be Meanwhile City Justice of Peace, Dennis White, related to Councilman David White, voluntarily resigned because of the same Nepotism law, but the four hoard members rehired him over the mayors objections--be-caus- e they couldnt get anyone else to take the job. Utah law has a hardship clause which permits this, says Counsel Young. Fourth District Court Judge, R. L. Tuckett, who has taken the under petition consideration, must decide whether the town board can take the right to sign checks away from the president of the board and give another member the authority to sign city checks. Goshen has been working under a hardship since the difference arose between the mayor and board members. They have not been able to operate properly or pay the city employees, since it was not known who had the authority to sign the checks.
