^an action in the First Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada against the Public Service Commission of Nevada, seeking "to recover a judgment vacating and setting aside an order of the Public Service Commission of Nevada, on the 2^th day of August 1951> and ordering that the schedule of rates filed with the Commission on January 22, 1951 shall be in effect forthwith as is more fully described in the complaint." At the same time, counsel for plaintiff and defendant stipulated that defendant may have twenty (20) days from and after receipt by the Public Service Commission of a demand that the Commission prepare and file its answer to the complaint of plaintiff. On February 1, 1952, the Las Vegas Land and Water Company petitioned the Commission "that the above-entitled case be re-opened and that a further hearing be granted at the earliest possible moment to the end that rates shall be prescribed by the Commission which will afford the petitioner substantial and prompt relief and enable the petitioner to earn a fair return upon a reasonable rate base." On March 26, 1952, the Las Vegas Land and Water Company served the Attorney General and the Public Service Commission with demand that answer be made to the Company’s complaint. On April l*, the Las Vegas Land and Water Company withdrew its petition for re-opening the case. The matter was set for hearing by the Judge of the First Judicial District Court and heard on June 30> July 1 and 2, 1952, at which time new and additional evidence not heretofore considred was offered by the Las Vegas Land and Water Company. In accordance with the law governing such matters, the Court referred the record as made before the Commission and before the Court back to the Public Service Commission for further findings based on the new evidence as submitted. By stipulation, the Court allowed the Commission thirty (30) days from and after receipt of the transcript for completion of new and additional findings.
