Ex parte MUSSETT.

Supreme Court of Texas.

January 28, 1914.

Habeas corpus proceedings by Charles Mussett against W. M. Rea, Sheriff of Tarrant County. Relator discharged.

See, also, 162 S. W. 846.

Wray & Mayer, of Ft. Worth, for relator.

PHILLIPS, J.

The relator in this proceeding was by the honorable district court of Tarrant county for the Sixty-Seventh district adjudged in contempt of court for an alleged violation of the same injunction considered by us in the case of Ex parte Andrew Zuccaro, 163 S. W. 579, this day decided, in which it was determined that the injunction in question was temporary and provisional in its nature, and expired on February 3, 1912. The violation for which this relator was adjudged in contempt occurred subsequent to that date, and accordingly after the expiration of the injunction. This proceeding is controlled by our decision in that case, and, for the reasons stated in the opinion therein rendered, the relator is entitled to his discharge.

Relator discharged.
