EX PARTE, STEPHEN J. FIELD.

Stephen J. Field, in propria persona.


CERTIORARI to the District Court of the Eighth Judicial District. This matter came up on return to the certiorari heretofore issued. (See The People, ex rel. Stephen J. Field v. Turner, ante, p. 152.) The facts will be found stated in the case referred to. Stephen J. Field, in propria persona.

By the Court, LYONS, J. On the return of the writ of certiorari heretofore issued, it appears that the order made by the Court of the Eighth Judicial District is the same as that which was before us on the application for the writ. The impressions expressed in the opinion then delivered, have been confirmed by subsequent investigation and reflection. The order returned by the writ of certiorari is therefore reversed and vacated.

Ordered accordingly.
