        "text": "Mb. Presiding Justice Waterman\ndelivered the opinion of the Court.\nThe only question presented by the record of this case is whether appellant was entitled to file a supplemental answer, and whether the court was justified in, after refusing to give such leave, entering a final decree in accordance with the opinion of the Supreme Court.\nThe parties having stipulated that the ,cause should be heard upon the pleadings and the affidavits of Samuel Gregsten, and the cause having been heard upon the pleadings, the order of the Supreme Court is, in connection with its opinion, a direction to the Circuit Court to give the relief awarded to the complainants by the final decree of the Circuit Court entered upon the filing of the order of the Supreme Court reversing and remanding the cause for further proceedings not inconsistent with its opinion. The cause was originally heard upon the merits, as shown by the pleadings; the opinion of the Supreme Court is upon the merits and is final; neither additional pleading nor evidence was permissible. Leiter v. Field, 24 Ill. App. 123; Hollowburk v. McConnell, 12 Ill. 203; Wadhams v. Gay, 83 Ill. 250; Newberry v. Blatchford, 106 Ill. 584; Hook v. Richardson, 115 Ill. 431; Gage v. Bailey, 119 Ill. 539; Sanders v. Peak et al., 131 Ill. 407; Buck v. Buck et al., 119 Ill. 613.\nThe only error of the Circuit Court was that on the hearing had May 8, 1894, instead of hearing the cause upon the matters and things, viz., the pleadings on which the cause had at the previous hearing been heard, the effect of which had been passed upon by the Supreme Court, it went on to hear the cause as recited in the decree as follows:\n\u201c This cause having been brought on this day to be heard upon the bill of complaint, as amended, of the complainants, the answer thereto of the defendants, and the replication of complainants to such answer, and upon the affidavits of Samuel Gregsten, Andrew Cummings, William H. Purdy and A. M. Hirsch, and the proofs and exhibits herein.\u201d\nThis error is inconsequential as the order of the court; the relief given is in accordance Avith the opinion of the Supreme Court.\nThe decree of the Circuit Court is therefore affirmed.",

Supreme Court Practice\u2014Remanding with Directions.\u2014When the parties stipulate that a cause shall be heard on the merits upon the pleadings and an affidavit, and it is so heard, and on appeal the Supreme Court reverse and remand it for further proceedings not inconsistent with the opinion, the opinion of the Supreme Court is upon the merits and is final. Neither additional pleading nor evidence is permissible.\nMemorandum.\u2014In equity. Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook County; the Hon. Murray F. Tuley, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1894, and affirmed-.\nOpinion filed December 20, 1894.\nStatement of the Case.\nSeptember 29, 1890, the appellees, Samuel Gregsten and Andrew Cummings, filed a bill of complaint in this cause, praying that the city of Chicago and the commissioner of public works be restrained from ejecting them from the vault or space underneath the alley in the rear of the premises occupied by said appellees, fronting on Dearborn street, Chicago, Cook county, Illinois. This bill of complaint was afterward amended by leave of court.\nA preliminary injunction was granted as prayed in said bill.\nOctober 21, 1890, the city of Chicago filed its 'answer to said bill of complaint, and on January 9, 1891, moved the court for dissolution of the injunction theretofore granted.\nThereupon the cause coming on to be heard on the defendant\u2019s motion to dissolve the injunction, it was stipulated that said cause should be set down for final hearing upon the bill as amended, and the answer of defendant thereto (defendant\u2019s answer to the original bill to stand as answer to bill as amended), complainants\u2019 replication to answer and the affidavits of Samuel Gregsten.\nThe order of the court recites that the cause came on \u201c to be heard upon the pleadings herein.\u201d\nOn such hearing the Circuit Court found the issues in favor of appellant, and entered a decree dissolving the injunction and dismissing the bill for want of equity.\nUpon appeal to the Appellate Court the decree of the Circuit Court was affirmed. Thereupon an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court, and in that court the decree of the Circuit Court was reversed and the cause remanded \u201c to the Circuit for further proceedings not inconsistent \u201d with the opinion of the Supreme Court.\nCondee & Rose, attorneys for appellant.\nKnight & Bbown, attorneys for appellees."
