We are not satisfied that the chancellor erred in denying the motion to dissolve. We apprehend he chose the wiser course in not granting the motion. We have repeatedly held, that on a motion to dissolve an injunction, when the answer contains a full and complete denial of the material allegations of the bill, the court is invested with wide discretion in passing on the question, in the exercise of which, it will consider and balance the probable resulting damages to the respective
By a singular omission, the alleged insolvent, fraudulent debtor,. D. G. May, was not made a party to the bill. Pie was a necessary party, and, the cause can not proceed without making him one.
Affirmed.
