State v. Alexander, 111 P. 655 (1910)

4 Okla. Crim. 370; 1910 OK CR 208; 1910 Okla. Crim. App. LEXIS 46

Eurman, Doyle, Richardson

Opinion of the Court

EURMAN, Presiding Judge.

A proceeding to remove a person from office seeks to deprive him of a property right. It is therefore a civil suit, and this court has no jurisdiction to consider an appeal in such case.

The demurrer of the appellee will therefore be sustained, and the appeal is dismissed.

DOYLE and RICHARDSON, Judges, concur.
