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 — Craig
CRAIG, J.
Since the appeal and the filing of the opening brief in this case, wherein the only points raised were as to the jurisdiction of the trial court and the sufficiency of the evidence to support the judgments, appellants filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, also raising the question of jurisdiction. The writ of habeas corpus was granted, and appellants were discharged upon that ground. (In the Matter of Leach et al., 99 Cal. App. 645 [279 Pac. 157].) This question being decided, the other point has become moot, and nothing remains for us to decide.
Upon the authority of the decision mentioned, the judgments and orders denying a new trial are reversed.
Works, P. J., concurred.
Thompson (Ira F.), J., being absent, did not participate in this decision.
