Examiner of the United States Coast Guard, after conducting a

violating a narcotic drug law of the State of Oregon (illegal sale
of marijuana).

The Investigating Officer introduced evidence of an indictment
against Appellant for the unlawful sale of marijuana, and a jury

Investigating Officer then rested. Counsel for Appellant moved to
dismiss the charges on the ground that there was no evidence of a
conviction since the court had not yet rendered judgement in the case. The Examiner agreed that the proceedings were premature but
denied the motion and adjourned the hearing until after the court
acted. | Appeal No. 1523 | Suspension and Revocation Appeals Authority | 6/23/1965 | 6/23/1965 | | 3/1/2018 |

"misconduct" for that while serving as "galley utility" on board a
merchant vessel of the United States, the SS PHILIP BARBOUR under

on or about 7 April, 1949.

not guilty to the charge, although he admitted that he had not
sailed with the vessel at the time of its departure from New
Orleans. There was received in evidence an excerpt from the
Shipping Articles from the SS PHILIP BARBOUR showing Appellant's name, rating and wages. Appellant explained that his reason for failing to report to his vessel was due to the fact that on the evening of the 5th of April, he had gone ashore with permission, and had a number of drinks at a nightclub; that he was returning to the ship when the New Orleans police arrested and charged him with disorderly conduct. Before the Municipal Court at New Orleans, he was sentenced to serve 20 days and to pay a fine of $20.00 on each of two charges and his incarceration prevented him from returning to the vessel. | Appeal No. 0340 | Suspension and Revocation Appeals Authority | 6/19/1949 | 6/19/1949 | | 10/30/2017 |

the United States Coast Guard at New York with misconduct, for that
while serving as 3rd cook on the American SS MARINE TIGER under
authority of his duly issued Merchant Mariner's Document

following their mutual indulgence in several drinks. The Examiner
found Appellant was guilty by virtue of the plea and entered an
order revoking the documents identified above and all other
documents or certificates held by this Appellant. | Appeal No. 0335 | Suspension and Revocation Appeals Authority | 6/13/1949 | 6/13/1949 | | 10/30/2017 |

to the same. When he was advised that, after the passage of three
days, the Appellant was unable to secure either character witnesses
or letters of recommendation, the Examiner entered the order of
revocation. | Appeal No. 0331 | Suspension and Revocation Appeals Authority | 4/22/1949 | 4/22/1949 | | 10/30/2017 |
