Opinion

No. 24876.

March 18, 1968.

G. Morton Good, Cromwell A. Anderson, Smathers Thompson, Miami, Fla., for appellant.

Martin Greenbaum, Miami Beach, Fla., for appellee.

Before TUTTLE and GOLDBERG, Circuit Judges, and HOOPER, District Judge.


Concluding, as we do, that the trial court had a broad discretion in determining whether to grant or withhold immunity to a non-resident from being served with process while a subpoenaed witness at a hearing in the Southern District of Florida, Lamb v. Schmitt, 285 U.S. 222, 52 S.Ct. 317, 76 L.Ed. 720 (1932); Page Co. v. MacDonald, 261 U.S. 446, 43 S.Ct. 416, 67 L.Ed. 737; Stewart v. Ramsay, 242 U.S. 128, 34 S.Ct. 44, 61 L.Ed. 192, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
