ISSUE THREE The VCSC charged that the lower court erred in not requiring the posting of a bond. The Appellate Court simply ruled the VCSC argument 'is clearly without merit." According to statute a bond required only when plaintiffs fail to make showing entitling them to a prelimiinjunction. The judges ruled that such was not the case."

In the judges' ruling that certair. findings by the trial court could lead to proof of constructive fraud if proven in a final hearing, they refer to Decker's lengthy listing of "findings of fact" that back up his statement that the school board was "arbitrary and capricious' in their ac tions. Decker also stated in his original ruling that Board of Trustees of the Vigd County School Corporation. has disregarded its duty to the citizens and taxpayers of Vigo County, and tended to deceive the citizens and taxpayers of Vigo County and violated publie and private confidence and injured public interests."

Robinson's ambitions to be an actor like his father. who died 13 months ago, were never fulfilled. He had a few small movie and television parts. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s he was in and out of court. He was arrested at least five times for drunken driving, once spent 60 days in jail and frequently had his driver's license revoked.

He was arrested for drunkeness and assault. and lost a paternity suit brought bv a 29-year-old waitress in 1968. He was the son of the senior: Robinson by his first wife. Gladys Llovd. Although she left an estate of more than three quarters of a million dollars when he died in 1971.
