Headnote

Certiorari.—Where a Court has Jurisdiction of the subject matter, and of the parties to an action, an order, though erroneous, if not in excess of jurisdiction, cannot he reviewed on certiorari.
Application for writ of certiorari.
Jas. A. Shankland for petitioner.

The superior court having jurisdiction of the estate of the insolvent, Baeher, and of all persons interested in it, it is clear that the order of that court directing the assignee to pay out of the estate certain sums of money, if erroneous, was not in excess of its jurisdiction.

Writ denied and proceedings dismissed.
