Supreme Court of Arkansas.

December 1, 1969.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thomas B. Keys and Virginia Tackett, Little Rock, for appellant.

Graves & Graves, Hope, for appellees.


GEORGE ROSE SMITH, Justice.

To meet that obstacle the highway department filed this suit to enjoin the Marlars from obstructing the work. The chancellor granted the injunction but required the department to file a $10,000 bond to protect the landowners' claim.
