1Opinion of the Court

Brannon, Judge :

In an action before a justice in Koane County a judgment was given upon the verdict of a jury, and then the judge of the circuit court awarded a writ of certiorari. There was a motion to quash that writ in the circuit court, but it was overruled, and judgment rendered reversing the judgment of the justice, setting aside the verdict of the jury, awarding a new trial, and retaining the ease in that court for a new trial. The action was by 8. A. Falconer v. J. M. Simmons. Simmons has brought the case to this Court by writ of error.
