The proponents of the petition to return Southbridge to a Town Meeting/Board of Selectmen form of government repeatedly cite the 1979 Appeals Court Decision in Marino v. Southbridge as the legal basis of their case.

7 Mass. App. Ct. 461
February 15, 1979 - April 25, 1979
Worcester County
Present: BROWN, GREANEY, & KASS, JJ.
