Parties | STATE, Respondent, v. ROBERT NOBLE, Jr., Appellant |
Court | Idaho Supreme Court |
APPEAL AND ERROR-APPEALABLE JUDGMENTS AND ORDERS-COMMITMENT TO INSANE ASYLUM.
No appeal lies from commitment to insane asylum as an inebriate since commitment is not "final judgment," and legislature has not provided for appeal in such proceeding (I. C. A., secs. 11-201, 64-216).
APPEAL from the District Court of the Third Judicial District, for Ada County. Hon. Chas. F. Koelsch, Judge.
Appeal from a commitment in an inebriety proceeding. Dismissed.
Appeal dismissed.
Wm Healy, for Appellant, cities no authorities.
Fred. J. Babcock, Former Attorney General, Z. Reed Millar, Former Assistant Attorney General, Bert H. Miller, Attorney General and Ariel L. Crowley, Assistant Attorney General, for Respondent.
It is well settled that the proceeding followed in this case is paternal in character and in no sense penal. (In re Hinkle, 33 Idaho 605, 196 P. 1035; In re Tierney, 51 Idaho 279, 5 P.2d 539.)
The order of commitment is not a judgment or final determination of any of the issues of fact, so as to make the commitment res judicata. (In re Hinkle, supra.)

Appeals to the supreme court from a district court, generally, are provided for in Idaho Code Annotated, sec. 11-201. Provision is made for appeals from final judgments, as follows:
"From a final judgment in an action or special proceeding commenced in the court in which the same is rendered; from a judgment rendered on an appeal from an inferior court; from a judgment rendered on an appeal from an order, decision or action of a board of county commissioners."
Appeals are also provided for from orders, specified in the section, but there is no authority therein contained for an appeal from the order of commitment in a proceeding of this kind.
Such an order cannot be construed to be a final judgment. This court said in In re Hinkle, 33 Idaho 605, 196 P. 1035, which was an inebriety proceeding:
