BINGHAM, Circuit Judge.
This is an appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico dismissing an appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the District Court of San Juan, on the ground that the appeal was frivolous as it had previously decided a like question in a case where it had held that the Legislature of Puerto Rico had no power to enact a law by joint resolution.
The question raised is the same as the one decided by this court on December 8, 1937, in the case of Sancho v. Valiente Company, 1 Cir., 93 F.2d 327, where it was held that, under section 34 of the Organic Act of Puerto Rico of 1917, 48 U.S.C.A. §§ 822-841, 843, 844, no valid law could be enacted by the Legislature of Puerto Rico except by bill. The question here presented is governed by that decision.
The judgment of the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico is affirmed, with costs to the appellee.
