KLEIN, P.J.

An alternative writ of mandate was issued directing respondent Municipal Court for the County of Ventura (Municipal Court) to dismiss the misdemeanor cases against petitioners or to show cause why dismissal was not proper.

Dismissal would not be required although no trial occurred during the time set by Penal Code section 1382,1 if good cause could be shown for the delay.
