Description
Plaintiff, a citizen of Denver and patron of the utility, sought to maintain an action before the commission, in accordance with section 45, c. 137, vol. 4, 35 C.S.A., to have the rates of the utility which were on file with the commission revised downward on the ground that they were excessive and unreasonably high. The utility filed a motion with the commission to dismiss on the ground that the commission had no jurisdiction, for the reason that under article XX of the Colorado Constitution and the Denver city charter the power to fix and regulate rates of a public utility rests entirely with the city, relying upon the former decision of this court in the case of City and County of Denver v. Mountain States Tel. & Tel. Co., 67 Colo. 225, 184 Pac. 604. The commission sustained the motion and the case was subsequently taken to the district court of the City and County of Denver which sustained the action of the commission. Whereupon the matter was brought before us for review.
