1Opinion of the Court

Opinion of the Court by

Drury, Commissioner

Reversing.. The Meade County Board of Education removed L. H. Powell, superintendent of schools, and thereupon Powell sued the board in equity in the Meade circuit court, alleging that the board in removing him had acted arbitrarily and capriciously, had abused its discretion, and removed him for insufficient cause; the circuit court found his petition meritorious and entered a judgment restraining the board from removing him, and it has appealed.

This is a case similar to that of Howard v. Bell County Board of Education, 247 Ky. 586, 57 S. W. (2d)…
