49 S.C. 389 | S.C. | 1897
The opinion of the Court was delivered by
This is an appeal from a per-emtory writ of mandamus issued by his Honor, Judge Witherspoon, directing the sheriff of Abbeville County to sell certain real estate. The order of his Honor, Judge Witherspoon, should be incorporated in the report of this case. The facts of the case are: on salesday in September, 1889, the sheriff of Abbeville County, after due advertisement, sold at public outcry all of the right, title, and interest of E. M. Pope in the premises described in the petition herein, to satisfy sundry executions against said F. M. Pope.
We are of the opinion that, in a case of this kind, mandamus will not lie. It is the judgment of this Court, that the order of the Circuit Judge be reversed, and that petition for mandamus and all proceedings thereunder be dismissed.
