— This is an action upon a promissory note given in pursuance of a conditional sale contract by the ap
The clause referred to appears in the note as follows: “and I hereby agree to waive all benefits of valuation, ap-praisement and exemption laws, and all rights of appeal, and to release all errors.”
C. S., sec. 5670 is as follows:
“E'very stipulation or condition in a contract, by which any party thereto is restricted from enforcing his rights under the contract by the usual proceedings in the ordinary tribunals, or which limits the time within which he may thus enforce his rights, is void. ’ ’
The stipulation in the contract in question comes within the inhibition of this section, is against public policy and is therefore void. The effect of such a stipulation is to oust the courts of their jurisdiction and to restrict the parties from enforcing their rights under the contract by the usual legal proceedings in the ordinary legal -tribunals. There is some conflict of authority upon this subject in the reported cases but we do not think, in view of the foregoing statute, that the question is open to discussion in this state. In fact, we are of the opinion that this court has held that appellant’s right of appeal cannot thus be foreclosed. (Douville v. Pacific Coast Casualty Co., 25 Ida. 396, Ann. Cas. 1917A, 112, 138 Pac. 506; Gaffney v. Royal Neighbors of America, 31 Ida. 549, 174 Pac. 1014; Huber v. St. Joseph’s Hospital, 11 Ida. 631, 83 Pac. 768.)
The motion to dismiss the appeal is hereby denied.
