Denver. Sept. 3o.--An anomalous
situation has been created In the ap-
pellate court by the act creating the
court OF appeals. The supreme court
has lost Jurisdiction over all appeal
cases, except to order them trans
ferred to the court OF appeals recent
ly appointed by Governor Shafroth.
and which is to begin sitting October
1. Jurisdiction OF the supreme court
is now limited to cases that go up on
writs OF error. and It may even trans
fer such of these to the appeals tri-
bunal as It may see ct.
On the other hand, clause in the
new statute abolishing appeals from
county and district courts and con-
fining them TO the appeals court gives
the right Of litigants TO take cases
from the latter tribunal to the high
er court. There are 900 cases on the
docket OF the supreme court Sixty
per cent. or $40 OF them. came up on
appeal from lower courts. the other
SEQ on writs OF error. The transfer
OF the $40 appeals action will be
made by the supreme court on Oct
l. when the court OF appeals assumes
Office. Under the old law one could
go to the supreme court both by ap-
peal and writ OF error. now writ Of
error is the only way to get into
that tribunal.
