Brown v. Mayor and City Council

Court of Appeal of California, Fourth District
Oct 27, 1959
174 Cal.App.2d 763 (Cal. Ct. App. 1959)

Opinion

Docket No. 5751.

October 27, 1959.

APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of San Bernardino County sustaining a demurrer without leave to amend. Martin J. Coughlin, Judge. Appeal dismissed.

Thomas M. Eckhardt for Appellant.

Edward F. Taylor, City Attorney, for Respondent.


[1] Petitioner here attempts to appeal from an order sustaining defendant's demurrer to the first amended petition for writ of mandate without leave to amend that pleading. This is not an appealable order. It does not appear that a judgment was entered dismissing or otherwise disposing of the action. No such judgment is contained in the record on appeal.

It has been uniformly held that an order sustaining a demurrer without leave to amend is not an appealable order or a final judgment and that a reviewing court does not have jurisdiction to review an appeal of this type. ( Futlick v. F.W. Woolworth Co., 149 Cal.App.2d 296 [ 308 P.2d 405]; Madsen v. Turlock Irr. Dist., 56 Cal.App.2d 742 [ 133 P.2d 416]; Cole v. Rush, 40 Cal.2d 178 [ 252 P.2d 1].)

Appeal dismissed.

Shepard, J., concurred.
