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
THE COURT.
Petition for hateas corpus. It appears-affirmatively from the petition that the applicant has heretofore applied to the superior court of the city and county of San Francisco for a writ of habeas corpus and that this proceeding is still pending and undetermined. It is a general rule of wide application that a court is without jurisdiction where it attempts by habeas corpus to interfere with the exercise by another court of jurisdiction theretofore acquired in a hateas corpus proceeding, unless the prior jurisdiction has been terminated.
The application is denied.
