JUDICIAL DECISIONS.

1. JUSTICES of the peace, alone, have power, under the acts of congress, to try and commit deserted seamen. The commissioners of the United States courts can only arrest and commit for trial. Crandall's Case, 2 Cal. 144. 2. None other than duties of a judicial character can be imposed on county courts or judges. Tuolumne Co. v. Stanislaus Co. Oct. T. 1856; Burgoyne v. Supervisors, Etc. 5 Cal. 9; id. Oct. T. 1856.

3. The county judge may issue an injunction against a bill filed in the district court, but his act is auxiliary to the action of the district court, and must have the same force and efficacy as if it were the direct act of the latter court. Crandal v. Woods, Oct. T. 1856.

4. A judgment rendered without jurisdiction may be attacked, either directly or collaterally, but where there is only irregularity in procuring jurisdiction, the judgment can only be attacked by a direct proceeding, in the court where rendered, or on appeal. Whitwell v. Barbier, Jan. T. 1857.

5. As to judgments of courts of inferior jurisdiction, the rule is different, nothing being implied in favor of their jurisdiction. Id.

6. It is error in a justice of the peace to refuse to allow defendant in suit for a mining claim to prove the value thereof to be over two hundred dollars. Freeman v. Powers, Jan. T. 1857.

7. A justice of the peace has jurisdiction to grant appeals and stay proceedings, nor can such action be reviewed on certiorari. Coulter r. Stark, Jan. T. 1857.

8. A mere obiter dictum is not authority. Haight v. Joice, 2 Cal. 64.

Jurisdiction-People v. Gillespie, 1 Cal. 342; Stevens v. Ross, 1 Cal. 94; Woods v. Barrett, July T., 1855. Judicial notice-People v. Smith, 1 Cal. 9; Ross v. Austill, 2 Cal. 183; Thorne v. San Francisco, 4 Cal. 127; Irwin v. Phillips, 5 Cal. 140. Stare decisis-Cohas v. Raisin, 3 Cal. 443. Submission-Greeseka v. Brannan, 2 Cal. 517. See Civil Practice, Constitutional Construction.
