Amy v. The Supervisors
AMY having obtained a judgment for money against Desmoines County, Iowa, in the Circuit Court for the District of Iowa, and not being paid, procured from the same court a mandamus against Burkholder, and several others, the supervisors of the county, to compel the levy of a tax. The mandamus not being obeyed, he sued them personally. They set up certain defences, to which he demurred. The court overruled the demurrer, and he brought the case here.
Mr. J. Grant, for the plaintiff in error, submitted a brief.
No opposing counsel.
Mr. Justice SWAYNE stated the case particularly, and delivered the opinion of the court.
