HYDEN, ELWOOD LEE BPR # 008403
January 04, 1980 County:Shelby District:9
Suspended for six (6) months by order entered January 4, 1980. While he was the County
Commissioner of Shelby County, he was charged with using the color of his elected office to
obtain money from Samuel Martin Dattel, a real estate agent and property owner of Shelby
County, for Hyden's cooperation and powers of his office to insure that the government of
Shelby County would widen and improve a road adjacent to Dattel's property. They were
charged with devising a scheme for Dattel to obtain money through eminent domain proceedings
to be used for this purpose by misrepresentations that Dattel owned certain property; when, in
fact, Dattel had already dedicated the property to public use.
