ORTMAN et al. v. DIXON et al. [1]

         JUDGES: Burnett, J., delivered the opinion of the Court. Terry, C. J., concurring.

         OPINION

          BURNETT, Judge

         Application for mandamus to the Judge of the Yuba District Court.

         This was a chancery suit in which a decree was rendered for plaintiffs, perpetually enjoining the defendants from diverting the waters of Mill Creek. Pending a motion for a new trial, the defendants violated the injunction, and plaintiffs applied for an attachment against them for contempt of Court, which was refused upon the ground that the pending of the motion operated as a suspension of the injunction.

         We think that this was error. Let a peremptory mandamus issue.
