Opinion

Mr. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

This motion is granted. A judgment of reversal, accompanied by an order remanding the cause for a retrial, is not a final judgment for the purposes of a writ of error to this court. Houston v. Moore, 3 Wheat. 433; Bostwick v. Brinkerkoff, 106 U. S. 4, and cases there cited.

Motion granted.
