Herrick v. Cutcheon
U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit · Decided February 3, 1893 · Cubiam, Helsoh, Putham, Webb
55 F. 6; 5 C.C.A. 21; 1893 U.S. App. LEXIS 1514

Herrick v. Cutcheon

Opinion of the Court

PEE CUBIAM.

Whatever may he the practice of the circuit court as to drawing out decrees before they become effective as such, it is plain that the docket entry in this case, containing only the words, “Opinion — Decree for complainants,” does not constitute a decree for an injunction required to give this court jurisdiction, nor can the docket entry he aided for that purpose by reference to the opinion. The appeal was taken prematurely, and is dismissed.
