      C. H. Parker, for Respondent.
   By the Court, Rhodes, J.:

One of the points upon which the defendants rely, is that the resolution of intention to grade the street, which was passed by the Board of Supervisors in March, 1862, was pot presented to the President of the Board of Supervisors for his approval, and is therefore void. The point was considered in Creighton v. Manson, 27 Cal. 613, 628, and it was there held that the Consolidation Act required the resolution to be presented to the President of the Board of Supervisors, because it was in substance a legislative act and must be passed in the mode prescribed by law for the passage of an ordinance. Upon the authority of that case the judgment must be reversed.

Sawyer, J., concurring specially:

In Creighton v. Manson, I dissented from the construction given to sections forty and sixty-eight of the Consolidation Act. The members of the Court who concurred in the decision on that point in Creighton v. Manson, after further discussion have affirmed the ruling at the present term in Creighton v. Lawrence. I regard- the point as now finally settled and not open to further discussion. On this ground I concur in the judgment.
