Syllabus

<p>Boroughs — Resolution—Expenditure of money — Ordinance—Borough building — Injunction—Preliminary injunction — Dissolution of injunction —Equity.</p> <p>A preliminary injunction restraining the expenditure of public money in making certain alterations upon a municipal building of a borough, will be dissolved, where it appears that although the alterations were authorized in the first place by a mere resolution of the council, yet, after the injunction was granted an ordinance in due form was passed ratifying the previous resolution, and it also appears that the alterations were proper, and that the expenditure of money would materially increase the rentals from the portion of the building not used for municipal purposes.</p>
