C. Wybrant of Woodward and Tom R. Blaine of Enid, presiding. There are a total of 173 civil cases and 26 criminal cases listed on the docket that will be and attorneys estimated that full threefourths of these cases are in the category usually referred to as "status quo." In other words, attorneys have not been paid to advance the cases and in many instances the clients have moved from the jurisdiction of the court. This is especially true in a large number of the undisposed of divorce cases.
What the judges will do with the cases remains to be seen. Every So often the courts order the clerk to list all the pending cases and they go through them and do dismiss on their own motion several of the cases.e This action sort of clears up the docket and leaves, only cases that attorneys desire to bring to issue still pending.
