FINDS FLAW IN
|. ABATEMENT LAW
Of CALIFORNIA
Proposed Law for Hawaii Not
Subject to Criticism That
is Voiced in Court

Defects in the California abatement
by Injunction Law have been found by
the superior court sitting az San Fran
cisco. The provision which the court
finds to be unconstitutional, however,
differs materially from the bin now
pending iii the territorial Legislature
and the provisions OF that proposed
law would not he open to the same
objection.
The California abatement law pro-
vided that any citizen might on his or
her own monition and in his or her
own. name begin proceedings for the
abatement of nuisance and for in
junction restraining its continuace
and asking that certain penalties, in
Guiding the closing or the premises
FOR year, be inforced
Grants Too Much Power
According to the newspaper ac-
counts. the court holds that the Cali
fornia legislature exceeded its power
when it gave to an individual citizen,
acting in the capacity of a citizen
alone, the right to maintain an action
when a penalty is attached.
Il lli6 uCCloIOA- says.
From the earliest times, down TO
the date Of these redlight abatement
acts, an action to abate house of i'll
fame was a public action and not a
private action. and must be maintain
ed. If at all, by the state, unless the
plaintiff pleaded some special injury.
A private person might not claim as
his cause OF action that which was a
cause of action in favor ofsthe whole
public. In the present case the plain
tiff does not allege any special injury
to himself"
After referring to the penalties
which the plaintiff asks be imposed in
abating the alleged nuisance, the
court says:
Relief Public, Not Private
st will be noted that such re-
quest constitutes no private relief,
but does constitute public relief and
private punishment. But public re-
lief and private punishnents are the
subjects of prosecute ions, and not 9TH
Ierwfse. At common law there was
no. private remedy for anything but a
private wrong. This rule has never
been changed in California by statute
or constitutional provision"
The proposed law which the terrific
rial senate now has unGer considera-
ton differs materially from the Cali
fornia law in that in the proposed law
the Individual citizen does not bring
the actiongi in Abatement but calls. the,
matter to the attention of the official
who is to prosecute, the attorney.gen-
eraI or the city and county attorney.
