The Court.

¶1This is an appeal taken by the people from an order of the superior court setting aside the information upon motion of the defendant.

¶2The appeal cannot be entertained. While the objection is not made by respondent, the appeal is one of which we have not jurisdiction, since the instance is not one in which the people are authorized to appeal. (Pen. Code, sec. 1238; People v. Richter, 113 Cal. 473.)

¶3Appeal dismissed.
