TITLE 192.
FEES.

ACT 2498.

To regulate fees and salaries of certain officers.

[Stats. 1869-70, p. 148.]

Amended 1. 1869-70, pp. 677, 680. 2. 1871-72, pp. 140, 178, 188, 219, 910. 3. 1873-74, pp. 102, 204, 212, 885. 4. 1877-78, pp. 134, 738. 5. 1917, p. 788.

"Repealed, as to the salaries and fees therein named, by the various County Government Acts, commencing with 1883, p. 299, and ending with 1897, p. 452. Repealed by fee bill of 1895, p. 267, as to the officers therein named; also repealed as to sundry counties by special acts relating to them. (Swinnerton v. Monterey Co., 76 Cal. 115; Sacramento Co. v. Colgan, 114 Cal. 246; County of Yolo v. Colgan, 132 Cal. 265.)"-Code Commissioner's Note.

This act was amended in 1871-72, p. 188, in relation to jurors' fees. It was held, in Carpenter v. Jones, 121 Cal. 362, that this act was not repealed by the codes, and had not been repealed by any subsequent act conflicting therewith, and that a court may refuse to try a civil case under that act until the jury fees are paid as therein provided for.

Although the code commissioners were of the opinion that this act was repealed, the legislature amended it in 1917 (Stats. 1917, p. 788). The Political Code provides that the amendment of a section of a repealed act is void: See Pol. Code, § 330. The amendment follows: § 28. Fees of grand and trial jurors. Grand and trial jurors shall receive the fees as established by law. No juror who shall be excused from attendance upon his own motion, on the first day of his appearance, in obedience to the venire, shall receive per diem, but mileage only. In civil actions tried by a jury the party or parties to the action who shall announce that a trial by jury is required shall pay the trial jury their per diem fees as jurors but shall recover the fees so paid, except in actions to recover the possession of personal property where the value of the property recovered amounts to less than three hundred dollars and in actions for the recovery of money or damages where the recovery is less than three hundred dollars, as costs from the party or parties against whom the verdict is rendered. For that purpose the party or parties to the action who shall announce that a trial by jury is required shall be required during the trial to deposit daily with the clerk of the court, at or before the time the case each day is called for trial, the amount of money necessary to pay in full the trial jury fees, for such day. Out of the total sum of money so deposited the clerk shall pay daily to each trial juror the fees to which he shall be entitled as provided by law. Clerks of courts of record shall keep an account of all moneys received for trials by each juror during the term, and if the sum so received by such juror shall not amount to the jury fees provided by law per day, he shall deliver to such juror a certificate of the time for which he is entitled to receive pay, which shall be paid out of the county treasury as other county dues. If in any trial in a civil case the jury be for any cause discharged without finding a verdict, the fees of the jury shall be paid by the party who shall have announced that a trial by jury is required, but may be recovered as costs if he afterwards obtain judgment; and until they are paid no further proceedings shall be allowed in the action. On the first day of each regular meeting of the board of supervisors the clerks of courts of record shall file with the clerk of the board of supervisors of their respective counties a detailed statement, containing a list of the jurors, and the amount of fees earned by each juror and paid out of the county treasury. No allowances shall be made to any clerk for any service performed by him, until the statement required by this section shall have been filed as aforesaid.

The amendatory act of 1917 contained the following provision:

§ 2. All acts and parts of acts in conflict with this act are hereby repealed. [Amendment approved May 21, 1917; Stats. 1917, p. 788.]

The amendment of 1877-78, p. 134, of the above act is entirely in line with § 977 of the Code of Civil Procedure and there is no repeal of the statute by implication: Webster v. Hanna, 102 Cal. 177, 178, 36 Pac. 421.
