State ex rel. Callaghan v. Vanisko
Opinion of the Court
delivered the Opinion of the Court.
This is an appeal from an order dismissing a complaint which sought an injunction against the Board of County Commissioners of Deer Lodge County and its individual members from issuing industrial development bonds under the Industrial Development Projects Act, Chapter 41, Title 11, E.C.M.1947.
In another case, Cause No. 11836, Fickes v. Missoula County,
On October 2, 1969 the Board of County Commissioners passed a resolution for the purpose of implementing the development of a recreation and tourist facility located partly in Deer Lodge County and commonly known as Gregson Hot Springs. Before anything further was done to accomplish the purpose of the resolution, this action was filed on December 5, 1969. The defendant Board appeared by a motion to dismiss and the matter was submitted to the Court. The effect of the motion to dismiss was agreed to be an admission of the allegations of fact in the complaint and a denial of the legal conclusions.
Here, as opposed to the Missoula County ease referred to above, we do not have the form of the bonds, the amount necessary, the leasing or other contract provisions. We are, in effect, called upon to rule in a vacuum. In the Fickes v. Missoula County case we discussed the issues presented here insofar as the sketchy facts might be applicable. Only one fact appears here that is different. Here we are told Gregson Hot Springs lies partly in Deer Lodge County However, we do not have sufficient facts to make any interpretation that might be meaningful.
Since we do not have a record sufficient to make a determinate decision, we decline to discuss the law applicable further. The order appealed from is affirmed since no justiciable matters are made to appear on this appeal.
