1Opinion of the Court

On Motion to Dismiss.

By the WHOLE COURT. ROGERS, J.

This is an appeal from a judgment maintaining exceptions of no right or cause of action, recalling a rule nisi for an injunction, and dismissing plaintiffs’ suit. The case was previously before this court upon plaintiffs’ application for writs of certiorari and mandamus to compel the district judge to issue an injunction against defendants, enjoining them from collecting certain municipal taxes due the village of Harahan. The relief sought was denied, and the proceeding for mandamus dismissed. Soniat v. White, 153 La. 424, 96 South. 19.
