Syllabus

<p>Animals — Running at Large — County Commissioners — Hearings —Reconsideration—Proceedings—Finality. Under 3 Rem. & Bal. Code, § 3172-1 et seq., providing that the board of county commissioners may, after a hearing, designate, by an order made and published or posted for four consecutive weeks, the boundaries of a district in which it shall be unlawful to permit live stock to run at large, and making it a misdemeanor to violate the order after it has been published or posted, as required in Id., § 3172-3, the commissioners’ power is not fully exercised by the granting of an application upon a hearing and the record entry of such action on the minutes; hence, until the order is entered and published, the matter was in a determinative stage, and the commissioners had power to give notice of a reconsideration of the application.</p>
