California Supreme Court

Decided May 25, 1886No. 20169PublishedCited by 38 opinions

Appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, and from an order refusing a new trial. The facts are stated in the head-notes and opinion of the court.

1Opinion of the CourtMcKinstry, J.

The defendant was found guilty of an assault with a deadly weapon.

The defendant moved to set aside the information on the ground that before the filing thereof he had not been legally committed by a magistrate.

It is urged that the testimony taken before the committing magistrate was not taken as prescribed by section 869 of the Penal Code. But our attention has not been called tó any particular defect or irregularity in the mode of taking the depositions, or in certifying the same, or in the order of commitment.

The commitment is in accordance with the statute. (Pen. Code, sec. 872.)
