APPEAL FROM GREEN CIRCUIT COURT.
November 13, 1883.
John W. Lewis, for appellant.
Ward & Henry, for appellee.

Opinion:
Opinion by
Judge Pryor:
The amount in controversy is not sufficient to bring the case within the jurisdiction of either this court or the superior court. The judgment sought to be enforced is for $71, and although a lien is asked that fact in no manner controls the question of jurisdiction. There is at least only $71 with the interest involved, and the appeal must therefore be dismissed.
