Description
1 In this matter, originally attempted to be prosecuted in the Court of Criminal Appeals as a misdemeanor appeal, the removed Sheriff [Sheriff] seeks review of an adverse judgment on a jury verdict in a proceeding by the Board of County Commissioners [Board], pursuant to 22 O.S. 1971 ? 1194 , to oust him from office. On the Boards motion to dismiss, the principal question to be answered is whether the Court of Criminal Appeals or this court, either or both, may take cognizance of an appeal in which review is sought of a judgment rendered in a removal-from-office proceeding initially brought either upon a grand jury accusation pursuant to 22 O.S. 1971 ? 1182 or, as in this case, upon a resolution of the board of county commissioners acting under the authority of 22 O.S. 1971 ? 1194 . While we hold that this court has exclusive appellate jurisdiction in ouster-from-office cases, we allow this appeal to stand by giving our pronouncement prospective application and effect in accordance with the doctrine of Poafpybitty v. Skelly Oil Company, Okl., 394 P.2d 515, 520 [1964].
