Opinion

Sprague, J.,

delivered the opinion of the Court, Rhodes, C. J., Crockett, J., and Wallace, J., concurring.

The power of the County Court to render a judgment against appellant for costs on dismissal of an attempted appeal from a judgment of a Justice’s Court, by reason of failure of appellant to perfect his appeal, or for want of jurisdiction of the subject-matter of the appeal, is undoubted, and was directly affirmed by this Court in the case of The [670]*670People ex rel. Leet v. The County Court of Placer County, decided at the October Term, 1869.

The writ is, therefore, dismissed.

Temple, J., expressed no opinion.
