Opinion

Catón, O. J.

There was no jurisdiction in the justice of the peace in this cause to evict the party. That could only be done by an action of ejectment. One of two things must exist to give jurisdiction in an action of forcible entry and detainer, or forcible detainer. There must be either a forcible entry, or the relation of landlord and tenant must exist. Neither is shown to exist in this case.

The judgment must be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
