The judge ad hoc, to wit, Hon. H. F. Brunot, appointed to decide whether or not Hon. L. B. Claiborne should be recused, overruled the motion made by defendants to recuse him. He sent the case back to be tried before Judge Claiborne.
He did not sign the judgment overruling the motion, although the proper entry in the minutes was made of the action of the court.
A suspensive appeal from this judgment ■was taken by the defendants.
In the motion to recuse Judge Claiborne, which Judge Brunot overruled, as before mentioned, defendants urged that Judge Claiborne was not competent to decide the case.
