Tennessee Supreme Court July 16, 1928 (Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway v. Reams)

Mr. Justice Cook,

delivered the opinion of the Court.

The defendant sued complainant before a Justice of the Peace to recover for a mule struck and killed by a train. A judgment was rendered for $200. Complainant appealed the cause to the Circuit Court where it was pending when this suit was filed to enjoin the action at law; and for an adjustment of the rights and equities of the parties.
