Mississippi Supreme Court

Holder v. Sykes

77 Miss. 64

Mississippi Supreme Court·Decided March 15, 1899·Published·Cited by 3 cases

Opinion

Whiteield, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

The act in question, passed January 31, 1898 (laws 1898, p. 78), is plainly and palpably violative of sec. 166 of the constitution of 1S90 — the supreme law of tbe state — and therefore null and void. It would be a mere waste of time to discuss so clear a proposition. If anyone wants a discussion and authorities, he can consult the brief of counsel for appellee.

Affirmed.
