THOMAS A. BUSSELL, and JIMMY SULLIVAN, substituted for D. C. COLEMAN, as Sheriff of Dade County, Florida, v. J. L. McCORD and RUTH C. McCORD, his wife.
    24 So. (2nd) 704
    June Term, 1945
    December 4, 1945
    Division A
    Rehearing denied June 18, 1946
    
      Boone, Boone & Newsom, Robert J. Boone and David B. Newsom, for petitioners.
    
      Thomas H. Anderson, for respondent.
   PER CURIAM:

The court below nullified a judgment against appellees for want of authority on the part of counsel to appear for them. It is admitted that they (appellees) were not served with process. The sole question here is the sufficiency of the evidence and we find it ample to support the chancellors decree. The following cases are not in all respects similar, but they are persuasive: Certiorari denied on authority of Budd v. Gamble, 13 Fla. 265, Shelton v. Tiffin et al., 6 How. 163, 12 L. Ed. 387 and Harshey v. Blackmar, 20 Iowa 161.

Certiorari denied.
