1Opinion of the Court
MORTON, District Judge.
The defendant in this suit obtained on June 21, 1915, in an action of law brought by it in this court, a judgment by default for nonappearance against the complainants herein. The term at which the judgment was entered expired and was adjourned sine die. This is a suit in equity, entitled “Bill of Review,” brought by the defendant in that action to enjoin the enforcement of the judgment so obtained, or to set it aside. The present defendant, the judgment creditor, has filed a motion to dismiss the bill, which is equivalent to a general demurrer.
