Opinion of the Court
The office in question in this case is that of alderman of the city of Detroit. The question is whether this court can review the decision of the council in determining, upon the facts, that the respondent was elected. On a similar case we have held that we have no power to interfere. People v. FitzGerald 41 Mich. 2.
