Syllabus

<p>Appellate Practice — Dismissal Where All Adversity of Interests Settled Between Parties.</p> <p>Where a writ of error is taken by a party against whom a peremptory writ of mandamas has been awarded, and it is made to appear satisfactorily to the appellate court that subsequently to the granting of such peremptory writ the party for whose benefit such writ was awarded acquired by amicable purchase from the party against whom it was awarded all of the rights and privileges sought to be enforced by such writ, and had been amicably let into the possession and enjoyment of all such rights and privileges by reason of such purchase, irrespective of such mandatory writ, thus obliterating all adversity of interest between the parties, and leaving no further contested issue between them, such writ of error will be dismissed.</p>
