Decided January 14, 1904

Texas Supreme Court · decided 1904-01-14

<p>Injunction—Local Option Law—Constitutional Law—Ruling Limited.</p> <p>Refusing a writ of error herein, the court decline to pass, because not necessary to their decision, upon the question whether, if the adoption of local prohibition in the county had impaired plaintiffs-’ constitutional rights, they could maintain injunction to prevent the county officers from putting the law'into effect. (P. 252.)</p>

Decided 1904-01-14

GAINES, Chief Justice.

¶1 We think the application for the writ of error in this case should be refused. But in order to prevent misconception we deem it proper to say, that we have not found it necessary to pass upon the question whether, if the statute in controversy had been unconstitutional, the plaintiffs were entitled to the remedy of injunction. The determination of that question not being requisite to a decision of the case we give no opinion upon it.

¶2 Writ of error refused.
