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
PER CURIAM.
This is a proceeding by quo warranto to determine the de jure existence of a de facto irrigation district. Certain bondholders of the district were allowed to intervene against the people, and have appealed from a judgment declaring the organization illegal. The people now move to dismiss the appeal upon the ground that the interveners have no interest, there being no judgment against them. The motion involves the whole merits of- the case as presented on the part of the appellants by their intervention in the superior court and by their appeal. Want of merit in an appeal is not a ground for dismissing it. Motion denied.
