Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

Said petition, with any such contesting lists
and affidavits, shall be presented to the court, or to the judge thereof at
chambers if the court is not in session, not less than ten (10) nor more than
fifteen (15) days after the petition has been filed with the clerk. If any
contest has been filed as herein provided, the court or judge shall set a date
for hearing the same at a time not more than ten (10) days later. At the time
set the court, or judge at chambers, shall hear all evidence for and against
said petition, and shall strike from such petition all names proved by
competent evidence to be fictitious and the names of persons having no legal
right to sign the same, and also all names not legally signed thereto. In case
there shall be no contest, or if the court or judge finds, after striking from
said petition all names proved to be fictitious, and all names not legally
signed thereto, that the petition still contains the number of qualified
signers required by this act, the court or judge shall order an election
according to the prayer of the petition. In case of contest, subpoena may be
issued as in other cases. All cases of contest arising upon such petitions
shall have precedence over all other cases.
