Pitts v. Berry

Opinion of the Court

BROWN, P. J.

The only question involved in this case — the constitutionality of the act creating the inferior court for Dallas county (Local’ Acts 1915, p. 436) — was fully considered in State v. Roden, 73 South. 657, 1 and was determined in favor of the appellant’s contention here, that the act is unconstitutional. On the authority of that case, the judgment of the circuit court is reversed, and a judgment here rendered denying the writ of mandamus and dismissing the petition at the cost of the petitioner.

Reversed and rendered.
