Syllabus

<p>Judges — Powers—Exercise Beyond Territorial Limits — Visiting Judges. Rem. & Bal. Code, § 42, expressly authorizes a judge of one county who sits in a case in any other county out of the district to determine the cause and render judgment in any other county in the state.</p> <p>Judgments — Time for Rendition — Delay. Delay in moving for judgment after the court has announced its conclusions does not work a loss of jurisdiction, the adverse parties having remained silent.</p> <p>Prohibition — To Courts — When Lies — Jurisdiction. Since prohibition does not lie to arrest the erroneous exercise of acknowledged jurisdiction, the remedy being by appeal, it will not issue to a judge who has. been given jurisdiction to enter a judgment to restrain him from erroneously determining an issue which it was not intended to submit to him.</p> <p>Judges — Jurisdiction—-Visiting Judges — Loss of Jurisdiction. In a receivership proceeding, in which issues had been referred to a visiting judge for trial, subsequent proceedings and orders in the receivership by the regular judge, such as acting on claims, does not deprive the visiting judge of the power to act upon the matters submitted to him.</p>
