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 — Cope
Cope, J. delivered the opinion of the Court Field, C. J. concurring.
This is a contest for the office of Sheriff of the county of Del Norte. The judgment must he reversed, upon the ground that the special term of the Court at which the case was tried was called upon insufficient notice. The statute (Wood’s Dig. 381) requires a notice of not less than ten nor more than twenty days, and the failure to give the requisite notice in this case, renders the proceedings irregular, if not void.
Judgment reversed, and cause remanded for new trial.
