On a scorching October 29th, 1935, Circuit Judge E.C. Love delivered a crushing blow to the Gadsden County Commissioners’ plans to secure a new jail. The ruling, which effectively put a crimp in their plans, left the board scrambling to find alternative financing. The commissioners had hoped to issue time warrants to secure the balance of funds needed for the project, but Judge Love’s decision threw a wrench in their gears.
