## Opinion text

BARHAM, J.,
concurs in the denial. The action is incorrectly styled one under the “Intrusion into Office Statute” R.S. 42:71-87. The suit is one in Quo Warranto. Code of Civil Procedure Arts. 3901-3902. The definition of “Public Offcer” is contained in R.S. 42:71 and does not apply to this officer. “Public Officer” under the Code provisions does include this office holder.
