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 — Bennett

By the Court, Bennett, J.

In this canse a quo warranto was sued out of the superior court, and judgment was rendered against the defendant. We decided in the case of The People v. Gillespie, (a?ite,p. 342,) that the superior court had no jurisdiction over proceedings hy way of quo warranto. That decision controls this case, and the judgment must be reversed.

Ordered accordingly.
