¶1This suit is a sequel of No. 2876 of our docket, in which we declared a writ of provisional seizure to have illegally issued, and its purpose is to claim damages for the same.
¶2Liability is fixed by the judgment and the only question is as to the quantum. Most of t'he pertinent facts have been stated in our preceding opinions on the various phases of this litigation and do not require present re-iteration.
¶3The district Judge properly allowed $100. for attorney’s fees, *26and $150 for the ‘'annoyance; inconvenience and humiliation in having- a keeper in the house for five days, the taking of the inventory and the furnishing of a release bond.”
¶4But we do not agree with our learned brother of the district Court in his refusal to allow exemplary damage.
¶5It is absolutely clear that Baldwin, in suing out the writ, was actuated by malice and acted without probable cause. He knew that no rent was due, and, as we said in No. 2676, “the proof is absolute that Baldwin repeatedly said that he would not take out a seizure.”
¶6In' the present suit, his testimony as to the promise is confirmatory of our foregoing conclusion. The motive for Baldwin’s hasty and wanton act is easily traceable to certain altercations between himself and members of the plaintiff’s family.
¶7Neither can he be exonerated on the plea that he acted under advice of competent counsel. He claims to have stated the facts “as he understood thorn” to Mr. McCaleb, but he does not state specifically that he mentioned the tender-of rent and the promise not to seize. Neither does counsel testify that such a full disclosure was made to him, and our appreciation of the ability and learning of Mr. McCaleb is too high to permit any suggestion that, if fcudh disclosure bad been made, he would have advised such a suit.
¶8We think $100 should be allowed for exemplary damages.
¶9The judgment is amended by increasing the allowance to plaintiff to the sum, of $350 instead of $250, as allowed below, and, as amended, said judgment is affirmed at appellee’s cost.
