Certiorari. Before Judge Brinson. Richmond superior court. December 16, 1900.

1Opinion of the CourtLewis, J.

Where a laborer institutes a suit to foreclose a lien which he claims against real estate, and on the trial of the issue formed thereon there is no testimony to show that he has completed his contract of labor, a verdict for the defendant is demanded by the evidence. In the present case, therefore, the court did not err in overruling the certiorari. ■

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
