[Civ. No. 4187.

First Appellate District, Division Two.

August 4, 1922.]

H. P. GARIN, Appellant, v. ALLEN E. PELTON et al., Respondents.

[1] Street Law—Closing oe Street—Determination oe Trustees— Character oe Proceeding — Prohibition. —• Proceedings had and taken by a board of trustees under the terms of the act of March 6, 1889 (Stats. 1889, p. 70), to close a street are not of a judicial character and, therefore, prohibition will not lie to prevent such proceedings.

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Alameda County. A. F. St. Sure, Judge. Affirmed.

The facts are stated in the opinion of the court.

George D. Collins, Jr., for Appellant.

J. Allison Bruner, City Attorney, Pillsbury, Madison & Sutro and Charles A. Ruggles for Respondents.

NOURSE, J.

[1] This is an appeal from a judgment adverse to plaintiff in an action seeking to prohibit respondents from closing a certain street in San Leandro. Respondents insist that the proceedings which appellant sought to prohibit were not judicial. The proceedings are the same as those considered in Garin v. Pelton, ante, p. 672 [209 Pac. 377]. It was there held that certiorari would not lie to review the proceedings because they were not judicial, and for the same reason prohibition cannot lie.

The judgment is affirmed.

Sturtevant, J., and Langdon, P. J., concurred.

A petition to have the cause heard in the supreme court, after judgment in the district court of appeal, was denied by the supreme court on October 2, 1922.

All the Justices present concurred.

Richards, J., pro tern., was acting.
