What is Hurtado v. California Case Summary about?

This document summarizes a Supreme Court case from 1884 called Hurtado v. People of State of California. It discusses whether the use of an information filed by a prosecutor instead of an indictment by a grand jury to charge someone with a felony violates the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment. The Supreme Court ultimately held that the California procedure of using an information after a preliminary examination did not violate due process.
