Description
Petitioner Ernest James Sarracino seeks a writ of mandate to compel vacation of orders rendered against him by a superior court commissioner presiding as temporary judge at a consolidated hearing on applications for temporary support and related relief in (1) a proceeding for dissolution of marriage brought by petitioner's wife, Dorothy Sarracino, and (2) an action for support brought by petitioner's adult daughter, Jane Sarracino, by her guardian ad litem, Dorothy Sarracino. Having failed to appear at the hearing, petitioner challenges the commissioner's power to act as temporary judge on the ground that the required "stipulation of the parties litigant" (Cal. Const., art. VI, § 21) was signed only by the wife and guardian ad litem. Petitioner also questions the authority of the guardian ad litem to act in the absence of any adjudication of the daughter's incompetency apart from the order granting the guardian ad litem's ex parte petition for appointment under Code of Civil Procedure sections 372 and 373, subdivision 3.
