[1] The information in the superior court upon which the judgment against petitioner is based clearly attempted to charge the felony defined by section 476a of the Penal Code. Whether the ‍​​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‍specific facts alleged as constituting the particular offense failed to sufficiently show the public offense attempted to be charged is a question which cannot be considered on habeas corpus under the well-settled rule ‍​​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‍of this jurisdiction. (Matter of Ruef, 150 Cal. 665, [89 P. 605]; see, also, Ex parte Greenall, 153 Cal. 770, [96 P. 804].)

As to the second point, in view of the facts and exhibits ‍​​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‍shown by the petition, it must be held that the superior court did vacate the order suspending the execution of the judgment.

The application for a writ of habeas corpus was denied for these reasons.

Shaw, ‍​​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‍J., Wilbur, J., Lennon, J., Olney, J., Lawlor, J., Melvin, J., and Angellotti, C. J., concurred.
