Heydenfeldt

Coffinberry v. Horrill

Opinion of the Court

Heydenfeldt, J., delivered the opinion of the Court.

Murray, C. J., concurred.

The error relied upon is the rendition and entry of judgment at a time when there was no legal term of the District Court. This assignment is sustained by the record; so upon the authority of Smith v. Chichester, 1 Cal., 409, the judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
