By the Court,
Dickinson, J.The statute requires all suits to be brought in the county where the defendant resides, or may be found, except where the Bank of the State, or the Real Estate Bank, is plaintiff. In either of these cases, the Circuit Court of the county in which the Principal Banking-house, or that of one o'f its Bra ches, is located, may issue its writ to any county in the State. These banks must sue in their corporate names, viz: “ The Bank of the State of Arkansas;” “The Real Estate Bank of the State of Arkansas.” There is no such corporation in this State as the one by which the defendants in error have described themselves, nor is there any statutory provision in their favor. The Circuit Court of Independence county erred in issuing the writs to Mississippi and Crittenden counties. j
We have not deemed it necessary to look into the question of misnomer, if there be one. The rules upon that subject are too well settled to leave any doubt as to the proper mode of proceeding.
Judgment reversed.
