Lead Opinion

McFarland, J.

The motion was made “upon the ground that before the filing thereof the defendant had not been legally committed by a magistrate for the offense charged in the information.” The point rests entirely upon the alleged insufficiency of the complaint made before the magistrate upon the preliminary examination.

The order appealed from is reversed.

Temple, J., and Henshaw, J., concurred.
