| The Disputed Judgeship.
| SAN Francisco November 23d-Attor-
ney-General Marshall to-day filed COM
| plant in quo warranto proceedings in the
Superior Court, to test the validity of the
appointment of Judge Levy. The opening
clause differs from the usual form, and is as
follows: " People of the State of California,
by Edward C. Marshall, their Attorney
General, acting solely upon the order of the
Governor of the State, and against his own
opinion, upon the relation of Frank H.
Clough. The relator herein complains of
the defendant" etc. The complaint goes
on to state that the appointment of Judge
Levy is based upon the alleged vacancy
caused by the resignation of the relator:
that on the 18th day of August the relator
did sign paper, purporting to be his resig-
nation, but that he was induced to sign the
same through fraud and undue influence :;
that at the time of signing it the relator
was weak, i'll and feeble, and of unsound
mind.
