        "text": "Gary, J.\nThis case begun by a distress for rent by the appellee against the appellant. The only question now is, whether the damages sustained by the appellant by an injunction sued out by the appellee, which prevented the appellant from using or sub-letting the premises for dram shops, and which injunction was afterward dissolved, should have been allowed to the appellant as a counter-claim, recoupment or set-off.\nOn principle, notwithstanding the case of Gorton v. Brown, 21 Ill. 489, it would seem that for maliciously and without probable cause suing out an injunction that is afterivard dissolved, but Avas injurious Avhile it was in force, a common laAV action should lie. Here, hoAveArer, there Avas no offer to show the elements of malice and Avant of probable cause, essentials in actions of that class, that is, malicious prosecution, arrest or attachment. Keber v. Mercantile Bank, 4 Mo. App. 195; Iron Mountain Bank v. Mercantile Bank, Mo. App. 505. But if these essentials are absent, the only remedy is such as the statute, or a bond, may give. High on Injunctions, Sec. 1657.\nIn actions upon contracts\u2014and a distress for rent is of that class\u2014the counter-claim, set-off, or matter of recoupment, must be such that the defendant can maintain an independent suit for it. The object is to prevent a multiplicity of suits.\nThe defendant has his election to use it by Avay of defense or bring a cross-action. Ives v. Van Epps, 22 Wend. 155.\nIt necessarily folioavs that as the appellant could not sue the appellee for the supposed damages, he can not recoujj them, but probably does not lose them. Crate v. Kohlsaat, 44 Ill. App. 274. The judgment is affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed..",
