TULSA, Okla. (UPI) -
Jeffrey M. Woods wants to
be left alone — at least by
Miren B. Kohfield.
Woods, a Tulsa resident,
took his request to Tulsa
County District Court
Thursday, filing a motion for
a temporary restraining
order against the woman
who he says harasses him.
The lawsuit claims Ms.
Kohfield, who Woods met in
Connecticut, followed him to
Tulsa and has been
bothering him ever since.
Woods claims the woman
intentionally moved into the
same apartment complex he
lives in, has poured beer on
his head In public, thrown a
champagne bottle through
his kitchen window, In-
terfered with his work and
smashed into his car.
The woman also allegedly
said at one point “she had a
contract out” on Woods, his
lawsuit states.
TULSA, Okla. (UPI) - A
Judicial screening com-
mitee has narrowed to five
the list of candidates for two
special Judgeships.
The committee, which in-
cludes two Judges, selected
the candidates late Thursday
for Tulsa County district
judges to vote on Aug. 7.
To be considered for the
$34,000-per year positions
are private attorneys
Harvey Carpenter, 54, Allen
Klein, 49, David O’Melia, 30,
and David Peterson, 38, and
assistant public defender
Deborah Shallcross, 31.
The legislature last month
created the two new
judgeships in efforts to ease
Tulsa County’s heavy
caseload.
TULSA, Okla. (UPI) -
Mayor Jim Inhofe has urged
voters to support an
initiative petition calling for
a vote on lawmakers’ recent
congressional redistricting
plan.. — —.
Inhofe Thursday criticized
the plan and said voters
should be allowed to reject
the proposed boundaries.
The mayor, in blasting the
proposal, said he
represented area
Republican legislators, city
and county office holders.
Inhofe contended the 1st
and 2nd district lines were
drawn to appease Democrat
congressmen Jim Jones of
the 1st District and Mike
Synar of the 2nd District with
no consideration of
“traditional county and
neighborhood lines.”

OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)
— A Judge has ruled insane a
man accused of killing his
mother last September, but
the suspect must report to
the judge if he is ever Judge
sane by doctors.
Charles Lee Mercer, 41,
was accused of killing Leona
Mercer, 64, by beating her
with a soft drink bottle.
District Judge David Cook
Thursday ordered Mercer
committed to a state mental
institution until he is Judged
to be "no longer a threat to
society or himself.” But
when that happens, he is to
be returned for an ap-
pearance before Cook so the.
judge can “review his fin-
dings.”
