PREFACE.

THE present edition of the Code of Civil Procedure is designed to present the complete text of the Code as now in force, together with convenient references to the entire body of the decisions thereunder. The Code is thus adapted to the extensive changes wrought by the amendments of 1880, made in conformity with the new Constitution of the State. The method of annotation adopted is characterized by the use of index or catch-words appropriate to a compact manual like this. Condensation is further facilitated by the employment of gradations of type. The citation of cases is confined to those in the California Reports, which are referred to by page and volume only. It is hoped that manifestations of careful and faithful effort will not seem lacking, and that the practitioner will be enabled to discover at a glance the object of his search.

NATHAN NEWMARK.

SAN FRANCISCo, October, 1880.

[As amended in 1881.]
