Syllabus

<p>Constitutionality of Laws.—An Act deliberately passed by the Legislature must be regarded by the Courts as valid unless it is clearly and manifestly repugnant to some provision of the Constitution.</p> <p>Number of Judicial Districts in this State.—Section five of Article VI of the Constitution does not restrict the number of judicial districts in this Sta e to fourteen, provided the number is increased by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature.</p> <p>The Title to an Office cannot be questioned Collaterally.—One entering into the possession of the office of Judge of a District Court, by color of right, becomes a Judge de facto, and his title to the office can be questioned only by an action brought directly for that purpose.</p>
