Description
This matter arose by way of a petition for a writ of prohibition on the part of the relators filed with this court on the 6th of November, 1967. On November 4, 1967, Ralph M. Lett as plaintiff filed in the respondent court his complaint for an injunction which was duly granted without notice by the respondent on the said 4th of November, 1967, enjoining the relators from calling up or mustering the Indiana National Guard. The petition further alleged that the Governor of the State of Indiana was in possession of information from which he had determined there was imminent danger of one or more riots in the city of Gary during the city election to be held the 7th of November, 1967. For this reason one of the relators, John S. Anderson, Adjutant General of the State of Indiana, was ordered to assemble units of the Indiana National Guard at convenient points in proximity to said city to be held in readiness for use in event a riot or riots occur which cannot be suppressed by the available civil authorities in the area. On November 6, 1967, a temporary writ of prohibition was issued by this court after oral argument in which attorney John J. Dillon appeared for the relators and Noble K. Littell appeared on his own behalf. Since then the election has been held and the matter made moot.
