§ 2380. Affidavit for Arrest of Defendant-Form.

[Title of Court and Cause.]

State of California,

City and County of San Francisco,-ss.

John Doe, being duly sworn, deposes and says, that he is the plaintiff in the above-entitled cause; that the above-entitled cause is now pending in said court and is brought by the plaintiff to recover the purchase price of certain property sold to the defendant because of certain false and fraudulent pretenses made by the defendant to the plaintiff.

That affiant further deposes and says that said cause of action and said false and fraudulent pretenses arose as follows, to wit: [State all the facts fully and never on information and belief in the justice's court.]

§ 2381. What must Appear for an Order of Arrest in an Action to Recover a Debt.

A justice of the peace cannot make an order of arrest in an action to recover a debt, until it is first proved that a cause of action

exists upon a contract, either expressed or implied, and, within the terms of the statute, that a cause of fraud does exist. All of the facts constituting the fraud charged must be stated in the affidavit, by way of direct averment, and not upon mere information and belief. The issuing of an order of arrest cannot be made upon general allegations of fraud or allegations made upon belief and information, as these do not constitute proof of the fraud alleged.1

1 In re Vinich, 86 Cal. 70, 71, 72.

§ 2382. Allegations in Affidavit can Never be Made on Information and Belief.

In the superior court some of the facts may be alleged on information and belief, the party being required to state the source and character of his information, and that he believes it to be true. The judge of the superior court may then judge of and determine the sufficiency of the ground of belief. But the legislature has deemed personal liberty too sacred to allow a party to go into an inferior court and get an order of arrest on anything less than proof, and "information and belief" is not proof.1

1 See In re Vinich, 86 Cal. 70, 71, 72.

§ 2383. Rule in Superior Court.

A statement of fact made expressly upon information and belief must be accompanied by a statement of facts upon which such information and belief are founded.1

§ 2384. Affidavit, Failure to State Facts.

An allegation of fraud only, and failing to state the facts constituting the fraud, makes the affidavit defective.1

1 In re Vinich, 86 Cal. 70, 71, 26 Pac. 528. See Kerr's Cyc. C. C. P., sec. 481.

§ 2385. Arrested Defendant must be Taken Before Justice Imme

diately.

The defendant immediately upon being arrested must be taken to the office of the justice who made the order, and if he is absent

or unable to try the action, or if it appears to him by the affidavit of defendant that he is a material witness in the action, the officer must immediately take the defendant before another justice of the township or city, if there is another, and if not, then before the justice of an adjoining township, who must 'take jurisdiction of the action, and proceed thereon, as if the summons had been issued and the order of arrest made by him.1

§ 2387. Notice to Plaintiff-Form.

[Title of Court and Cause.]

To A B C., the Plaintiff of the Above-entitled Cause:

Please take notice that I have arrested the defendant in the above-entitled cause, and now have him in my custody in obedience to the order indorsed on the summons in this action.

Justice of the Peace.

§ 2388. Affidavit and Undertaking on Order of Arrest. Before an order for an arrest can be made, the party applying must prove to the satisfaction of the justice by the affidavit of himself, or some other person, the facts upon which the application is founded. The plaintiff must also execute and deliver to the justice a written undertaking in the sum of three hundred dollars, with sufficient sureties, to the effect that the plaintiff will pay all
