Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion

This is a proceeding in mandamus. It is in all respects identical with the case entitled Civic Center Assn. of LosAngeles v. Railroad Commission (L. A. 5028), ante, p. 441, [166 P. 351], this day decided, except that the plaintiffs here are the cities of Pasadena, Alhambra, San Gabriel, and South Pasadena, each of which claims a sufficient interest to maintain the proceeding. All other questions, save their right to sue in that behalf, are discussed and decided in the other case. No private right is in issue. The question of their right to maintain such a proceeding is not of itself of enough importance here to justify this court, burdened as it is with the press of real cases, in taking time to consider it.

The proceeding is dismissed. *Page 813
