191 Cal. 233
THE COURT.

McKenna v. Industrial Acc. Com.

Opinion of the Court

The petitioner, Matthew McKenna, was denied relief by the respondents under the workmen's compensation law (Stats. 1917, p. 831) because they found that petitioner had suffered no injury as a result of the alleged accident, and that the injury he complained of resulted from a previous accident.

[1] The petitioner claims that the respondent board was without jurisdiction because the accident complained of *Page 234 comes within the admiralty jurisdiction of the federal courts. If this is true, the petitioner is not injured by the fact that the respondent board found against him. If they have jurisdiction he is concluded by their finding. Not having shown any injury by the order complained of petitioner is not entitled to a writ.

The petition for a writ of certiorari is denied.
