People v. Dickson
California Supreme Court
People v. Dickson, 46 Cal. 53 (Cal. 1873)
People v. Dickson
Opinion of the Court
The bill of exceptions which the prisoner desires the Court below to certify, is not contained in the record nor shown to us upon this application for a writ of mandamus against the Judge. In its absence we are unable to determine whether it would, if settled and signed, tend to manifest any error committed at the trial. (People v. Lee, 14 Cal. 510; People v. Kohl, 18 Cal. 432.)
Motion denied.
