PER CURIAM.

The suit was by a bill in equity ‍​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‍and in the name of the guardian rather than in the name of the ward by ‍​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‍the guardian. Eor this reason the circuit court was without jurisdiction to bind the ward.

Sup.) 145 So. 419. 1 This results in a reversal of the judgment and remandment ‍​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‍of the cause for proper amendment if the parties are so advised.
