Weissinger v. Johnnson
Weissinger v. Johnnson
Opinion of the Court
By the act of 1816, (Clay’s Dig. 357, <§> ,76,)it is provided that “whenever an injunction shall be
In the case of Crawford v. Bank of Mobile, 5 Ala. R. 55, it is said the damages of six per cent, cannot be allowed unless the facts stated in the bill, are shown to be untrue or evasive, and consequently, when the bill was dismissed for want of equity, a decree allowing damages was reformed in this court; but the case before us is not in this predicament. The defendant has fully answered the bill, denied all the equity, if it contained any, and avers that the bill was filed for delay. We think the conclusion at which the chancellor arrived, that the bill was filed for delay, is warranted by the facts of the case.
Let the decree of the chancery court be affirmed, at the cost of the plaintiff in error.
