In Re Ellis

YORK, P. J.

The petition filed herein for a writ of

habeas corpus

would not have been granted had the true facts been set forth therein. However, there has since been filed a stipulation which corrects the misstatements contained in said petition.

The opinion and order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County in the matter of the application of the same petitioner for a writ of

habeas corpus

properly determines the matter, although the same mistakes above referred to, as to some of the facts, are contained in that opinion. One misstatement is as to the size of the lot occupied by petitioner. Instead of the large lot described in her original petition and in the opinion above referred to, she occupied but a small city lot approximately 50 feet in width and 147.68 feet in depth, of which about 50 feet by 100 feet is not devoted to residence purposes by said petitioner. Said lot abuts on the rear a lot of similar width and of approximately similar depth which fronts on Goodwin Avenue in the city of Los Angeles, which lot is also occupied by a residence. The property fronting on said Goodwin Avenue is divided into lots of 50 feet in width, each of which is occupied by one or more dwellings. The property fronting on Sequoia Street—on which street the property of petitioner fronts— is divided into lots each of which is 50 feet in width, the lots on both sides of said street being of equal width, and each of the lots fronting upon said Sequoia Street and upon the south side of Goodwin Avenue are occupied by one or more

[101]

inhabitated dwellings, with the exception of occasional lots which have not yet been built upon.

It was under the opinion and order of the superior court, a copy of which is contained in the return to the writ, that petitioner was remanded to the custody of the chief of police of the city of Los Angeles. Said opinion and order is incorporated herein, as said opinion, taken with the statement of facts hereinbefore set out, answers all of the points raised by petitioner in this matter.
