Cohen v. Commissioners of Goldsboro

Opinion of the Court

Eeade, J.

If the defendants have an unlawful ordinance1, and have arrested and fined the plaintiffs, as they allege, the-plaintiffs have complete redress in an action for damages.. And as often as the arrest may be repeated they have the-, like redress ; but we are aware of no principle or precedent, for the interposition of a Court of Equity in such eases.

The injuution is dissolved and the case dismissed.

Per Curiam. Judgment reversed.
