Allen v. Pullman's Palace Car Co.

Syllabus

<p>Purely injunction bills cannot be maintained to restrain the collection of taxes upon the sole ground of their unconstitutionality. Shelton v. Platt, 139 U. S. 591, affirmed and applied.</p> <p>When in a suit in equity this court finds, on examining the proofs, nothing which makes a proper case for equity, it is its duty to recognize the fact, and give it effect though not raised by the pleadings, nor suggested by counsel.</p>
