Beilby v. Superior Court
Opinion of the Court
Petition for certiorari, presenting the following ease: Petitioner was plaintiff in an action appealed from justice’s court to superior court. Upon a trial de novo there was a verdict for defendant.

Petitioner claims that the judgment is to that extent void, because the trial judge
We think, however, that the service and filing of a cost-bill is fairly within a proper construction of section 1054 of the Code of Civil Procedure authorizing extensions of time. It is substantially “a notice other than of appeal.”
Writ denied.
