On Motion for Rehearing.
Defendants in error’s motion to dismiss the writ of error was granted on a former day, upon the specific ground that it appeared from defendants in error’s motion to dismiss, and plaintiffs in error’s reply thereto, that the state, through its proper officers, -had not affirmatively joined in or authorized the appeal. It now appears that the county attorney has affirmatively joined in the motion for rehearing, from which action it is necessarily implied that the state, through that official, did authorize, and now joins in, the appeal. This implication is strengthened by the fact that defendants in error have not contested the motion for rehearing, or offered any evidence, by affidavit or otherwise, touching upon the question of the jurisdiction of this court over the case. These conclusions require that plaintiffs in error’s motion for rehearing' be granted, and defendants in error’s motion to dismiss be overruled, unless the latter motion shows some other good ground for dismissal. We are of the opinion that no such other ground is shown.
Accordingly, plaintiffs in error’s motion for rehearing will be granted, and the former order granting defendants in error’s motion to dismiss writ of error, and the order of dismissal, will be set aside, and the motion to dismiss overruled.
It is so ordered.
