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 — Myrick
Myrick, J.
This is an application for a writ ¡irohibiting the governor of the State from proceeding with an investigation under the last clause of section 1, article x., of the Constitution.
We are of opinion that under the clause referred to the governor has authority and jurisdiction to proceed with the investigation sought to be arrested.
Application denied.
Thornton, J., Eoss, J., and McKjnstry, J., concurred.
Concurrence — Sharpstein
Sharpstein, J.
I do not think that the proceedings which it is sought to have arrested are without or in excess of the jurisdiction of the governor, and I therefore concur in the denial of the writ of prohibition.
