City & County of Sacramento v. Bird
Citations
- 15 Cal. 294
Syllabus
<p>Under the Consolidation Act of 1858, the Treasurer of the city and county of Sacramento is entitled to receive for his official services only $3,000 per annum. He is not entitled to the per centage allowed by the State to County Treasurers for money paid by them into the State Treasury. This per centage belongs to the city and county of Sacramento.</p> <p>Statutes should be construed according to what appears to be the intention of the Legislature, and even though two statutes relating to the same subject be not in terms repugnant or inconsistent, if the later statute was clearly intended to prescribe the only rule which should govern, it will be construed as repealing the original Act.</p>
