189 P. 435 | Cal. | 1920
This is an unverified application under section 652, of the Code of Civil Procedure, the object being to obtain the insertion in a bill of exceptions to be used on an appeal from a judgment of a statement going to show that the trial judge, in the matter of signing the findings of fact and conclusions of law constituting the written decision required by law, left the matter of the contents of such findings entirely to the attorney for the prevailing party and signed the same without reading. We can hardly conceive that a trial judge would sign a decision on controverted facts without knowledge that the same expressed *609

The application is denied.
All the Justices concurred.
