¶1To authorize an injunction, the plaintiff’s right should appear to be clear, and his title to the relief asked at least prima facie. (Olmstead v. Loomis, 6 Barb., 152). This should fully appear by the complaint. If it is *183not shown that the injury is irreparable, or the right of the complainant free from doubt, an injunction ought not to issue. It is not enough to show that the continuance of the acts complained of will do the plaintiff an injury ; he must show that it is a case in which he will be entitled to final relief. (Corning v. The Troy Iron Nail Factory, 6 How. Pr. R., 89 ; Ward v. Deevy, 7 lb. ; Wordsworth v. Lyon, 5 lb., 463).
¶2The facts necessary to sustain the injunction must he sworn to positively,—if stated in the complaint positively and sworn to, it may be sufficient. If stated on information and belief, they must be supported by affidavit of the facts themselves. Mere information and belief is insufficient. All the material allegations of the complaint, however stated therein, must be supported either by the oath of the party or of witnesses. (Jones v. Atterbury, 1 Code R. N. S. 87; Pomeroy v. Hindmarsh, 5 How. Pr. R., 439; Campbell v. Morrison, 7 Paige, 157; Bank of Orleans v. Skinner, 9 lb., 305 ; Jewett v. Allen, 3 How., Pr. R., 129 ; Roonie v. Webb, 1 Code R., 114, 1 Barb. Ch. R., 617 ; Woodruff v. Fisher, 17 Barb., 229 ; Pennifield v. White, 8 How. Pr. R., 87).
¶3When the whole equity of the complaint is denied by the answer, the rule generally is to dissolve the injunction. It does not always follow that the court in such a case will of course dissolve it; it is matter of discretion, and under the present system when there is conflicting evidence by affidavits, the court will weigh the evidence, and hold or dissolve the injunction, as the equities of the case may seem to require.
¶4There is a fatal defect in the plaintiff’s case. All the material facts alleged in the complaint are upon information and belief, and there is no evidence in the affidavits on the part of the plaintiff sustaining any of the material facts upon which he asks relief. It is, moreover, very doubtful whether the plaintiff, if his complaint was admitted, would be entitled to the relief he asks in this suit.

¶6The injunction must be dissolved with ten dollars costs,
