Tyler v. McKenzie
Supreme Court of Colorado
Error to the County Court of Pitkin County. Hon. Henry C. Hyers, Judge. Action by L. N. McKenzie against Rose Tyler. Prom a judgment for plaintiff, defendant brings error.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Goddard
1. Counsel for plaintiff in error insist that the court committed a fatal error in assuming jurisdiction to try the action under the statute relating- to forcible entry and detainer, in the face of the record which shows a noncompliance with some of its essential requirements, relying upon the well-settled rule that, when the jurisdiction given by statute is clearly a summary one and the manner of obtaining such jurisdiction is prescribed by the statute, such provisions are mandatory and must be strictly followed, and the record must affirmatively show a compliance therewith.
