Lftroux 4* Pfieur ; Duval ^ Prieur ; Elie <$• Prieur, Mont- real, 18 March, 1887 ; Caron Sf Masson ; Olivier Sc Prono- vosl; de<!ided at Quebec in October 1888. We now come to the second question :• Is there an appeal from the judgment rendered against the appellant? contains three distinct adjudications. By the first, the Court of Review has avoided the election of Go'yette : the second deals with charges of corrupt practices against the appellant, and the third,with simi- lar charges against one Bourassa. The three may there- fore be considered as separate judgmentis, as each case might have been determined separately without reference to the other two. If the Court of Review had found the appellant guilty of corrupt practices before the case of the election petition had been inscribed or after it had been ecided, there would undoubtedly have been an appeal fi^m its judgment, under Art. 494 of the C. C. P., and the fact that the Court has joined a case in which it had no jurisdiction to one which came under its judicial author- ity.' cannot deprive the party aggrieved of a recourse which he would otherwise have. The first requirement to the validity,of a judgment is that it i^hb;ild be rendered by a tribunal clothed with authority to render it, and in every other country there is a remedy against ^ judgment rendered by a Court having o jurisdiction. The remedy Here is by a writ of certio- efore the Superior Court, when the tribunal is one of inferior jurisdiction, and by appeal, when the judg- ment does not emanate from a Court of inferior jurisdic- tion, thtit is, inferior to that of the Superior Court. In the present case, the judgment being a decision from the Court of Review could not be impea
