STATE, to Use of COLLIER, v. GILMORE et al.

Supreme Court of Missouri, Division No. 1.

November 9, 1891.

JURISDICTION OF SUPREME COURT — AMOUNT IN DISPUTE — TRANSFER TO COURT OF APPEALS.

It being apparent from the evidence that the "amount in dispute" is not sufficient to confer jurisdiction on the supreme court, the cause will be transferred to the proper court of appeals.

Appeal from circuit court, Andrew county; C. A. ANTHONY, Judge.

Action by the state to the use of Samuel Collier. Judgment for defendant, and plaintiff appeals. Transferred to Kansas City court of appeals.

David Rea, for appellant. C. F. Booher, Wm. Herren, and J. A. Sanders, for respondent.

SHERWOOD, J.

It is quite apparent from the evidence in this cause that there is no such "amount in dispute" as is requisite to confer jurisdiction on this court. The cause must therefore be transferred to the court of appeals at Kansas City. All concur.
