On the 23rd day of March, 1876, the relator filed a petition in the circuit court of St. Louis county, to enjoin a sale under execution of certain real estate in St. Louis, upon the ground that such sale would cast a cloud upon his title. A perpetual injunction was decreed by the circuit court, and on appeal to the Court of Appeals the judgment of the circuit court was reversed, and the'cause remanded. Thereupon the relator applied for an appeal to this court, and the Court of Appeals refused to allow the same. The relator now asks that a writ of mandamus be issued by this court compelling the Court of Appeals to grant him an appeal. ITis application is founded upon that provision of the constitution, which declares that appeals shall lie from the decisions of the Court of Appeals to this court, in all cases involving the title to real estate. The suit for injunction prosecuted by the relator is not one involving the title to real estate, within the meaning of the constitution. The result of the litigation may affect the title to real property, as would every suit in which a judgment could be rendered which would be a lien on real éstate, but it cannot be said to involve the title.
.. At the January term, 1876, at St. Louis, we decided that suits on special tax bills, and to foreclose mortgages, and to enforce mechanics liens, were not suits involving
Writ Denied.
