California Court of Appeal

In a Board of Supervisors election challenge, following certification of the final canvass, alleging mistakes, errors, and misconduct in counting the ballots, the trial court's dismissal of the contest because it was filed more than five days after certification of the final canvass, is reversed where because defendant was elected by a majority of votes, and not merely nominated, plaintiff had 30 days after certification of the final canvass to file her contest.
