Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Herbert M. Brune, Baltimore, Md. (R. Edwin Brown, Rockville, Md., and Sidney C. Miller, Jr., Baltimore, Md., on brief), for appellants Jesse Slingluff, Baltimore, Md. (John W. Avirett, 2d, Baltimore, Md., Herbert W. Bryan, Charleston, W. Va., Morton P. Fisher, Jr., and Piper & Marbury, Baltimore, Md., on brief), for appellee.

Before HAYNSWORTH, BOREMAN and BELL, Circuit Judges.


HAYNSWORTH, Circuit Judge.

Without questioning the condemnor's right to condemn or the amount of the award as determined by the District Court, the condemnees have appealed, raising a number of procedural points in the apparent hope of obtaining a new trial before a jury and, possibly, damages for trespass on account of the condemnor's acts upon the land during the pendency of this appeal. We find no merit in any of the several points raised.
