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
By the Court:
We are of the opinion that section four thousand three hundred and thirty of the Political Code as amended by the Act of March 28th, 1872 (Stats. 1871-2, p. 653), was intended to regulate the salaries of District Attorneys as contradistinguished from fees, to which they were entitled under existing laws, and was not intended and did not have the effect to repeal prior statutes, allowing fees in addition to salaries.
Peremptory mandate as prayed for ordered in each case.
