Cornell University Medical College v. Superior Court

Opinion

ELKINGTON, J.

On the petition of Cornell University Medical College, a New York corporation, hereinafter termed “Cornell,” we issued an alternative writ of mandate to the Santa Clara County Superior Court. The superior court had denied Cornell’s motion to quash service upon it, of summons issued on a cross-complaint of Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company (hereafter “Fireman’s Fund”), a real party in interest. That judicial act is here under review.

The first issue to be considered by us relates to the jurisdiction of this court to entertain the instant proceeding.
