Affidavit for certiorari.—An affidavit to a petition for certiorari, “that all the material allegations of the above and foregoing petition are true so far as stated upon my own knowledge, and so far as stated upon the information of others are believed to be true,” held sufficient upon a motion to quash the certiorari on the ground of insufficiency of the affidavit, the motion failing to specify the defect.</p> <p>3. Certiorari.—Proceedings to remove a cause by certiorari to the district court are construed liberally.</p>
