Syllabus

<p>Equity — Injunctions—Diversion of water course — Waters.</p> <p>1. A court of equity will generally grant relief by way of injunction to prevent the continued wrongful diversion of a water course, and such relief may be granted though the complainant has suffered no material damage by reason of the diversion as otherwise the continued diversion might ripen into a prescriptive right, or require a multiplicity of suits.</p> <p>Appeals — Preliminary decree — Quashing appeals.</p> <p>2. Where in an equity suit an appeal is taken without a final decree having been entered, the appeal will be quashed.</p>
