Syllabus

<p>Mines and Minerals <@=»38(7)—Injunction—Receiver.</p> <p>In Ms complaint the plaintiff claims to be the owner of the mining claim described therein. He prays for an injunction pendente lite, to prevent the defendant from dredging the gold from the claim and carrying it away before the title is settled. Held, the plaintiff is entitled to the relief demanded; but, owing to the peculiar hardship, that the injunction will stop the season’s work of the dredge, the court offers to appoint a receiver for the gold dust, to hold it till the title to the claim can be settled in this suit, and thus allow the work to proceed.</p> <p><§=s>See same topic & KEY-NUMBER in all Key-Numbered Digests & Indexes</p>
