Five New Mandamus Cases Begun
The Krebs Estate Distribution
Other Court News.

Five new petitions for an alternative
write of mandate to Theodore Reichert,
Surveyor-General and ex officio Register
of the State Land Office, have been filed
in the Superior Court. The petitioners
are A. w. Porter, Lucy Dixon, G. F.
Hapson. Charles Easton, Jr., and Mary
Easton.
The petitions, like those of last Satur-
day, recite the facts of the setting aside of
the san Bernardino forest reservation by
the President, the claim of the State for
lands in lieu of the sixteenth and thirty
sixth sections in the reservation, and
further recite that the petitioner has
offered an application in good faith for
lands in lieu on that basis which Reich
ert refuses to accept and file, as well as
the fee accompanying it according to
law.
The petitioners therefore pray the court
to issue a writ of mandate ordering
Reichert to receive and file the said ap-
pllcations or show cause why he does not
do so, and also enjoining him from TAX
ing any action with regard to the lands
sought to be filed on until the matter is
decided by the court.
The writs are made returnable and will
be heard on June I'd.
