Appellant sued appellee for alleged infringement of appellant's right of property in an unpublished play of which she claimed to be the author. Appellee moved to dismiss the bill of complaint for failure to state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. The District Court granted the motion and, on February 7, 1938, entered a decree dismissing the bill. We reversed the decree and remanded the case for further proceedings.
