W-r. Justice Burroughs

¶1delivered the opinion of the court.

¶2Plaintiff in error, as a judgment creditor, prosecuted a proceeding in equity in the Circuit Court of Edgar County against defendant in error, to set aside certain conveyances and subject the lands so conveyed to the payment of his judgment. Upon a hearing the Circuit Court entered a decree in favor of the plaintiff in- error against John P. Perisho, the defendant in error, which was reversed by this court upon appeal prosecuted therefrom by the latter; and this court then remanded the proceeding to the Circuit Court for the reasons stated in the opinion in 71 Ill. App. 222.

¶3After such remanding the proceeding was again heard in the Circuit Court and some additional testimony was produced which, together with the evidence considered on the first hearing, constituted all the evidence heard. .The additional testimony in no essential particular changes the aspect of the rights of the parties from that presented when the proceeding was formerly before us and then determined.

¶4The Circuit Court after the second hearing found against plaintiff in error and entered a decree dismissing his bill for want of equity, to reverse which he prosecutes this writ of error.

¶5After a careful examination and consideration of all the evidence now on this record, we are satisfied that the rights of the parties herein are shown to rest precisely upon the same facts and principles as were shown when the case was before us formerly, and this court then in effect decided the evidence showed that plaintiff in error had participated in the fraudulent conveyances which he herein attacks, and must, on that account, be left in the position he made for himself.

¶6The former opinion and decision of this court in this case after it was remanded, were of binding authority upon the Circuit Court upon the second hearing: and the facts not having been changed by the evidence, and it having entered a decree herein in accordance with such decision and opinion. we must and will affirm it. Affirmed.
