Hardy Bryan, Acting Chief of Police of the City of Miami, Plaintiff in Error, v. Joe Cohen, Defendant in Error.
    
    149 So. 210
    Division B
    Opinion filed February 6, 1933.
    
      J. W. Watson, Jr., Mitchell D. Price & Charles W. Zaring and Robert S. Florence, and Loftin, Stokes & Calkins, for Plaintiff in Error;
    
      
      Burwell & Sibley, for Defendant in Error.
   Per Curiam.

In this case we have before us a companion case to that of McCreary v. Cohen, decided at this term. The difference is that in this case the Circuit Court did not hold the ordinance to be unconstitutionál but on the contrary dismissed the traverse of return on grounds “first” and “second,” which grounds challenged the constitutionality of the Act. But, the petitioner was discharged upon the ground that the affidavit charged no offense. Such judgment should be reversed on authority of the opinion and judgment in the case of McCreary v. Cohen, supra. It is'so ordered.

Reversed.

Davis, C. J., and Whitfield, Terrell, B^own and Buford, J. J., concur.
