Hunts’ attorneys
ready arguments
on case transfer
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Lawyers
for the billionaire Hunt brothers
and a group of banks will argue in
federal court today over whether the
Hunts should be forced to take their
bankruptcy cases back to Texas.
A three-judge panel of the 5th
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will
hear the case at 10 a.m. and could
rule later in the day.
Companies owned by William
Herbert Hunt, Nelson Bunker Hunt
and Lamar Hunt filed for reorgani
zation under federal bankruptcy law
in New Orleans Aug. 29 to keep 23
banks from foreclosing on $1.5 bil
lion in past-due loans.
Last week, U.S. District Judge
Barefoot Sanders of Dallas gave the
Hunts until today to transfer the
cases back to the bankruptcy court in
Dallas.
The Hunt interests involved in
the cases are Placid Oil Co., a Placid
subsidiary and the William Herbert
Hunt personal estate trust.
Sanders also ruled that any bank
ruptcy proceedings filed on behalf
of the Hunts’ Penrod Drilling Co.
must be filed in Dallas.
The Hunts appealed Sanders’ or
der Monday to the 5th Circuit.
In a related development, court
officials confirmed Wednesday that
two members of the original three-
judge panel that was assigned the
case removed themselves this week.
But officials refused to identify the
judges who removed themselves,
their reasons for doing so or the
judges who replaced them.
Attorneys for the banks argue
that the Hunts “have no right of ap
peal from the orders complained of,
and even if they did, their appeals
are patently unmeritorious.”
Hunt associate
to pay record
$250,000 fine
DALLAS (AP) — An associate
of the billionaire Hunt brothers
has agreed to pay a record
$250,000 fine and turn over re
cords of an alleged attempt to
corner the silver market, accord
ing to a federal agency.
The Commodity Futures Tra
ding Commission said Tuesday
the agreement to turn over the
records of the alleged 1979-1980
silver market manipulation was
“the first break as far as moving
the case forward.”
The commission said the fine
to be paid by Naji Robert Nahas
of Brazil is the largest civil fine
ever assessed against an individ
ual in a futures trading case, 1'he
Dallas Morning News reported
Wednesday.
The Hunts have denied any vi
olation of the law and contend
the commission has not proved
their trading drove up prices.
Foreign parents upset
by public school fees
ARLINGTON (AP) — Foreign
university students who have school-
age children say they are unhappy
with a policy requiring them to pay a
monthly tuition fee for public
schools.
Arlington school officials are fac
ing a loss of $4.5 million in state
money during the 1986-87 school
year and are strictly enforcing the
policy adopted in 1977.
The district is charging children
of foreigners $270 a month for el
ementary school and $300 a month
for secondary school.
Foreign parents in Arlington say
they were shocked by the ruling.
The Fort Worth chapter of the
American Civil Liberties Union
plans to hold a meeting with some of
those parents to discuss challenges to
the policy.
Arlington Superintendent Donald
Wright said the decision to enforce
the policy was prompted by the loss
of state money.
He said about 100 foreign stu
dents are affected by the policy.
Cattlemen seek damages
from U.S. over dairy policy
WASHINGTON (AP) — South
ern and Western cattlemen asked
Congress on Wednesday to pay
them upwards of $200 million for
losses they say they suffered this
year because of government-subsi
dized dairy cow slaughter program.
Cattlemen complained after the
Agriculture Department began the
program that too many dairy cows
were going to market at once, de
pressing beef prices. The program
pays dairy farmers to go out of busi
ness to control milk surpluses.
