In re Woods

Opinion of the Court

THE COURT.

The application for a writ of habeas corpus is denied. The recent amendment of sections 1, 11, and 15 of article VI of the constitution does not abolish the justices courts and other inferior courts which had been previously established by acts of the legislature. They remain in existence with the jurisdiction vested in them by the acts creating them, until the legislature shall, in the exercise of the power given by the section as amended, otherwise provide.
