November 16, 1916.
Petition for injunction; from Wayne. Motion to dismiss.
Wilson & Bennett and Padgett & Watson, for plaintiff.
J. H. Thomas, solicitor-general, for defendant.

Opinion:
Gilbert, J.
The plaintiff in error was security on a criminal recognizance, which was forfeited; and the sheriff undertook to collect the amount thereof from, the security. The plaintiff in error filed a petition to enjoin the sheriff, and an interlocutory injunction was refused. The plaintiff in error excepted. The General Assembly (Acts 1916, p. 1053) having relieved the plaintiff in error, of his liability on the recognizance, the Writ of error is dismissed.
All the Justices concur.
