Syllabus
This was a proceeding in contempt and the contention was that, on the facts, no case of contempt was made out. Held:

(2) And that as the judgment was in effect a judgment in a criminal case, this Court had no jurisdiction to revise it on error.
The case is stated in the opinion of the Court.
