Opinion

OPINION

Per Curiam:

The state district court enjoined the Board of School Trustees of Clark County School District from effectuating a judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Nevada directing implementation of the “Sixth Grade Center Plan” to desegregate the schools.¹ The state court injunction was entered without jurisdiction [Roy v. Brittain, 297 S.W.2d 72 (Term. 1956); Brewer v. Hoxie School District No. 46, 238 F.2d 91 (8 Cir. 1956); U.S. Const, art. VI, cl. 2; Nev. Const, art 1, § 2], and is peremptorily set aside. The motion to dissolve it should have been granted.

Reversed.
