1Opinion of the Court
FAIRCHILD, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiffs Phillips are the owners of an automobile, detained by defendant Money, who claimed a lien for his services. Plaintiffs brought action for damages and injunctive relief under 42 U.S. C. § 1983, claiming that certain lien laws of Indiana deny due process and are unconstitutional. Plaintiffs sought to maintain the action as a class action and to add as defendants the state of Indiana and the governor. The district court dismissed the action, on motion of the defendants, without prejudice. Plaintiffs appealed.
