25 P.2d 987 | Cal. Ct. App. | 1933
Silveria Garcia, as administratrix of the estate of Vincente Garcia, deceased, brought this action for damages for the death of Vincente Garcia, who was killed *616
in a collision between two automobiles. The case was tried by the court without a jury and damages were awarded in a substantial sum against the operators of both cars. [1] Bechtol, one of the defendant operators, moved for a new trial and the court made a written order amending the findings of fact under section
[2] Appellant cites cases to the effect that the order controls and the opinion of the trial court has nothing to do with the order. This is correct, but has no application here. The trial court filed no opinion, he merely filed an order and this order could not be avoided or affected in any way by the clerk's abbreviation of it in his minutes.
The order appealed from is affirmed.
Craig, Acting P.J., and Archbald, J., pro tem., concurred.
