binary rules of practice, and give due
weight to the later section Appar-
emily the object Of this legislation was
to prevent the granting of extensions
and the meddling Of Judges in cases
which they bad not tried or which
we're not properly under their control,
and yet in the case of the absence or
inability Of the Judge who tried the
action, TO grant relief, or allow ex-
tensions to be made to deserving liti-
giants.
The argument advanced comedies
that if Judge Murphy had gone to
Reno and entered the order in open
court it would have been good, but I'M
der this contention if he had stepped
through the door into the chambers
and made it, it would have been void.
Orders extend ding the time for films
are business usually, or properly
transacted in chambers and under
Section 2572 can and ought to be
made as eift, tually in any part of the
State by the Judge having the case IN
charge as if made by him n cham
bers or in open court Judge Murphy
was merely acting for Judge Curlnr
during his vacation, but by analogy
the construction claimed, if adopted,
would in every case where a district
Judge dies. resigns or is succeeded,
invaiidate ne orders extending time
under section 1877 made cut Of court
by his successor in Office, ALTHOUGH
they are Of that character ordinarily
granted in CHAMBERS. This would
mean 2 distinction and TWO rules for
fling orders of he same kim.
