        "text": "OlaRK, J.\nThis is an action to restrain defendant from constructing, maintaining or using certain pound nets in Albemarle Sound. It appeared that tbe grand jury bad ignored a bill to indict a similar act as a public nuisance. The Judge, upon conflicting affidavits, held: \u201cAfter considering all tbe affidavits filed and tbe allegations contained in the pleadings and tbe argument of counsel, I am of opinion that the burden of proof is on the plaintiff to prove to the satisfaction of the Court that the acts complained of as a public nuisance affect him injuriously in some manner peculiar to himself and not in common with the general public. It is also incumbent on plaintiff to show that such alleged nuisance is irreparable in its nature and the injurious effects are immediate so as to warrant the granting of the extraordinary remedy before the alleged nuisance is established by the findings of the jury. I am of opinion that the plaintiff has failed to show the above requirements' to the satisfaction of the Court or by a preponderance of the evidence\u201d \u2014and refused to continue the restraining order to the hearing.\nIn this, on examination of the affidavits, we find no error. Eishing is a public industry against which an injunction, will not lie when the injury to the private citizen is doubtful. This, however, does not debar the plaintiff from making out his case for a permanent injunction upon issues found by a jury at the final hearing, if he can. Appeals in this and like cases are unnecessary, as such final hearing will usually take place almost as early as, if not before, the opinion of this Court can be certified down, and the appeal can not have the effect to confer, pending the appeal, the injunction which The Judge refused. James v. Marcom, 125 N. C., 145; Green v. Griffin, 95 N. C., 50; High on Injunction, sec. 893.\nNo error.",
