Tbe Attorney General, on tbe information of James P.
The case is now presented on a motion to dismiss the appeal on various grounds; the most important ones seem to be, viz :
First — The want of jurisdiction, the matter in dispute not exceeding five hundred dollars, and appellant’s interest in the matter in dispute not exceeding five hundred dollars.
Second — That as the proceeding is by the State under the ‘^intrusion act,” no appeal can be taken by N. C. Kendall, a third person.
It is quite evident that the motion to dismiss is well taken.
What is the matter in dispute t
It is the office of School Directors, and books and papers and other property pertaining thereto.
To these the appellant sets up no claim whatever.
His office, secretary of the board, is not in dispute.
From his own statements we cannot perceive that he has any interest whatever in the matter..
It is therefore ordered that this appeal be dismissed at appellant's costs.
