Section 1833 of the Code of Civil Procedure does not say that prima facie evidence is that which suffices "until contradicted or overcome" but "until contradicted and overcome" by other evidence. When prima facie evidence of a fact has been introduced its effect is not destroyed by the introduction of contradictory evidence. It stands as proof until both contradicted and overcome by other evidence. (Miller & Lux Inc. v. Secara, 193 Cal. 755, 770 [227 P. 171].)
