Syllabus

<p>- Eminent Domain — Appropriation—For Diking District — Review —Appeal or Certiorari. Certiorari, and not appeal, is tbe proper method of reviewing a judgment in tbe original proceeding awarding damages or assessing benefits for tbe appropriation of land for diking purposes, since under tbe special act governing that class of proceedings (3 Rem. & Bal. Code, §4107) tbe only appeal allowed is in case of supplemental proceedings to subject new lands to assessment, tbe statute providing that judgment therein shall be supplemental to all original decrees, and that any party aggrieved may appeal from “any such judgment.”</p> <p>Mount, J., dissents.</p>
