Description
This is an appeal from a judgment of the Circuit Court of Cole County which affirmed certain orders of the Public Service Commission of Missouri (hereinafter referred to as the ""Commission"") relating to the matter of providing telephone service in an area consisting of the south three miles of Madison County, Missouri, hereinafter referred to as the ""Three-Mile Strip."" The orders provided that the service should be furnished by Southwestern Bell Telephone Company (hereinafter referred to as ""Bell""). The Doniphan Telephone Company (hereinafter referred to as ""Doniphan"") appealed to the circuit court, and has appealed to this court from that court's judgment of affirmance. On July 1, 1951, the Commission granted a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity to Doniphan to engage in rendering telephone service, among other places, to the town of Greenville and the territory adjacent thereto. In 1957, Doniphan made a visual survey of the three-mile strip and on November 21, 1957, filed a map with the Commission whereby it purported to add the three-mile strip to the area served by the Greenville exchange. Doniphan has never furnished any service to the three-mile strip, nor has it offered to furnish service, and the nearest line it has to this strip is 19 miles away.
