Syllabus

<p>Eminent Domain — Procedure—Review—Certiorari. Certiorari lies to review an order adjudging necessity and public use in condemnation proceedings for a county road, as there is no remedy by appeal; the statute of appeals relating to proceedings in eminent domain permitting an appeal only from the award of damages, and Laws 1901, p. 213, allowing an appeal from adjudication of public use being unconstitutional because of defective title.</p> <p>Same — Scope and Questions Review able. Whether a use is a public use is a judicial question, and the same is subject to review on a writ of certiorari in condemnation proceedings.</p>
