Description
Petitioner, Early Faver, and Buck Cavin were rival candidates for the office of director in the annual school election held in Woodlawn School District No. 6 of Cleveland County on September 27, 1949. Faver was certified as the successful candidate on October 4, 1949, and a 26 mill school tax was also certified as having failed of passage. On October 14, 1949, Buck Cavin and others filed a petition with the Cleveland County Board of Education to contest Said election. Faver and the other contestees filed a response alleging that the petition to contest was not filed within the time required by law. The County Board of Education held that the action was filed too late and dismissed the contest. On appeal, the circuit court on November 23, 1949, ruled that the contest was filed in time and ordered the cause to stand for trial.
