§ 567. Jurisdiction of county court; injunction. Suit was brought to enjoin a judgment rendered by a justice of the peace for $46.

Under repeated decisions of this court, the judgment of the county court must be reversed and the injunction suit dismissed from that court for the want of jurisdiction.
