260. Courts-how established. § 21. A city court, consisting of one or more judges, not exceeding five, and not exceeding one judge for every fifty thousand inhabitants, may be organized and established under this act in any city which contains at least three thousand inhabitants, whenever the common or city council shall adopt an ordinance or resolution, to submit the question whether such court shall be established, consisting of one or more judges, not exceeding five, as may be specified in such ordinance or resolution, to the qualified voters of such city, and two-thirds of the votes cast at the election shall be in favor of the establishment of such court. Where such court is established with more than one judge, each judge may hold a separate branch thereof at the same time, and when holding such separate branch, each judge may exercise all the powers vested in such courts. Such election shall be held and conducted, the returns thereof made and canvassed, and the result declared in the same manner as other city elections. To discontinue and disestablish any such court, precisely the same modes of procedure shall be requisite and necessary, and be resorted to, as for the organization of said court. In the event of the discontinuance and disestablishment of any such court, the clerk thereof shall transfer and deliver to the circuit court of the county in which such city court is situated, all records, judgments, and processes in possession of himself, or of any other officer of said city court, and the circuit court shall thereupon acquire, and be vested with jurisdiction in the cases to which said judgments or process relates.
