ITS LEGALITY QUESTIONED.
Has the Police Court Of Sacra.
mento Legal Existence?

A petition was yesterday filed in the
superior Court by ]. w. Heating ask
ing that a writ of habeas corpus be is
sued in his behalf granting him a hear
ing on his application for discharge
from custody.
keating, it will be remembered. was
convicted in the Police Court on a
charge Of selling liquor without a IL
cense, and fined $500, with the alterna-
tive of going to jail for 200 days. He
appealed the case to the Supreme Court
and the judgment was affirmed a few
days ago. Yesterday Keating gave
himself into the custody Of Chief of
Police Drew, and Attorney Elwood Br,,-
ner at once applied for the writ of ha-
beas corpus.
The petition alleges that Heating is
deprived Of his liberty in consequence
of commitment issued out Of the Po-
lice Court of the City Of Sacramento.
that such commitment is Illegal and
without force for the reason that the
alleged Police Court of the City of
sacramento has no legal existence and
that the sentence was in excess Of that
which could be imposed under the city
ordinancel
Judge + fart granted the application
for the writ. which is made returna BILE
in Department Three at II o'clock Sat
urday morning.
The point raised by Mr. Bruner strikes
directly at the legality of the Police
Court
