1. A 'forcible-entry proceeding, under the Civil Code, § 4823, is, after service of the notice therein required, a “ pending proceeding,” within the meaning of the Civil Code, §4950, which will authorize the judge of- the superior court of the county in which such proceeding is instituted to entertain an application to enjoin the same at the instance of the defendant, notwithstanding the plaintiff may be a resident of another county.
