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:
The provision of the Act providing for the government of the County of Sacramento (Stats. 1863, p. 503), which declares that the Board of Supervisors shall be a body politic and corporate, does not make that county a “ municipal corporation,” within the meaning of that term, as used in the nineteenth section of the Political Code; but the county is subject to the provisions of the Code respecting the government of counties. The Board of Supervisors did not exceed its jurisdiction, in passing the order dividing the county into the requisite number of Supervisor Districts.
Order affirmed.
