Opinion of the Court

MILBY, J.

This was an action on a bond given under section 5371,- Rev. Laws 1910, for release of property seized under attachment order issued by a justice of the peace. The plaintiff in error was the obligee on the bond, and the defendants in error the principals and_ sureties thereon. A demurrer was sustained to the petition, and, plaintiff in error declining to amend, judgment was rendered upon the demurrer in favor of defendants in error.

There was no allegation in the petition that upon the execution of the bond the property attached was returned to the person in whose possession it was found. We are of the opinion that for this reason the petition failed to state a cause of action, and that it was not error to sustain the demurrer thereto.’ Drovers’ Live Stock Commission Co. v. Custer Co. State Bank et al., 19 Okla. 302, 91 Pac. 850.

The judgment is affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
