Casgrave v. Howland.
Casgrave v. Howland.
Opinion of the Court
In Dorsey v. Barry, 24 Cal. 449, we held that the proceedings authorized by Article VI of the Act to regulate elections are special and summary, and that no remedy can be had under the provisions of that Article, except such as is therein expressly or by necessary implication provided. We also held that a new trial was not authorized by the provisions of the Article in question, and that the remedy of a party who is dissatisfied with the judgment of the County Court is by appeal only
Under the decision in that case, we cannot consider the appeal from the order denying the motion for a new trial. As already stated, there is no statement on the appeal from the judgment, and it therefore stands upon the judgment roll alone. No error is assigned upon the judgment roll, and we have been unable to find any.
Judgment affirmed.
