No. 13721 | Cal. | Jun 1, 1891
— This action was brought by respondent against Ruiz, defendant, to determine the rights between said parties to purchase certain swamp and overflowed land. Gardner intervened as successor in interest to Ruiz. Judgment went in the lower court in favor of respondent and against the defendant and intervener, and the latter appeals.
1. There was no error committed in refusing to admit in evidence the application of defendant Ruiz to purchase, and subsequent papers dependent upon it, because, waiving all other objections, it appeared, and is not contradicted, the said application was made before
2. There was no error in allowing respondent to show that the land in contest, although granted to the state as swamp and overflowed land, and purchasable as such, had been so far changed in its character by natural causes as to have become “suitable for cultivation.” (Fulton v. Brannan, 88 Cal. 454" court="Cal." date_filed="1891-03-26" href="https://app.midpage.ai/document/fulton-v-brannan-5445179?utm_source=webapp" opinion_id="5445179">88 Cal. 454.)
3. The evidence warranted the findings, and the latter clearly show that the defendant was entitled to purchase.
We see no material error committed at the trial of the cause.
The judgment and order denying a new trial are affirmed.
Ds Haven, J., Harrison, J., Garoutte, J., and Paterson, J., concurred.
