| Parties | Charles GUSICK, Appellant, v. Frank EYMAN, Warden, State Penitentiary, Florence, Arizona, Appellee. |
| Court | Arizona Supreme Court |
Francis J. Brown, Phoenix, for appellant.
Robert Morrison, Atty. Gen., James H. Green, Jr., Sp. Asst. to Atty. Gen., for appellee.
Appellant Gusick states that this is an appeal by him to this court from an order entered by Judge Thomas sitting in the Superior Court of Pinal County, dismissing appellant's petition for a writ of habeas corpus, pursuant to the mandate of this court in the case of State ex rel. Jones v. Superior Court, 78 Ariz. 367, 280 P.2d 691.
An examination of the decision in that case clearly shows that the questions presented there and the questions presented here are basically the same. The arguments presented in the prior case and all questions raised, including the alleged denial of due process of law, are essentially the same as presented here. We considered and decided the due process of law question in our prior opinion, and pointed out that none of the grounds upon which defendant based his claim of a lack of due process, either under the State or Federal Constitution, had any validity on the record presented. Our previous opinion held that appellant's application for said writ of habeas corpus failed to state grounds justifying the issuance thereof and hence, the trial court was without jurisdiction to issue the same. We remanded the case to the trial court with instructions to dismiss. In the last analysis, therefore, we hold that the attempted appeal in the instant case is not an appeal from an order of the trial court but in fact an attempt to appeal to this court from its own judgment and mandate. Stewart v. Salamon, 97 U.S. 361, 24 L.Ed. 1044. See, also, Rouse v. Rouse, 238 N.C. 568, 78 S.E.2d 451. There are many other cases to the same effect.
In Woodward v. Perkins, 119 Mont. 11, 171 P.2d 997, at page 1001, the court said:
'The general rule is that no appeal lies from a judgment entered in an inferior court pursuant to and in substantial compliance with the mandate of the appellate court.' (Citing many cases.)
In Standard Accident Ins. Co. v. Allen, 38 Ariz. 173, 177, 298 P. 406, 407, we said:
