Stroub v. Manhattan Railway Co.

Dugro, J.

The plaintiff sought an injunction to prevent defendant from unlawfully taking his property. For the reasons stated in the opinion of the learned judge at special term (14 N. Y. Supp. 773) an injunction which will prevent this wrong should have been granted. The order appealed from contains a provision by which defendant is in effect provided with a way to obtain plaintiff’s property other than that fixed by statute. As the facts presented do not show a necessity for such extraordinary aid, it should not have been granted. The order appealed from is modified by striking therefrom all therein that follows the words “or until the further order of this court,” and *136inserting in lieu thereof the following: “or until the defendant shall have obtained the right to enter upon tile said premises in the way provided by statute.” As thus modified the order should be affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements to the appellant. All concur.
