Case Details

(The syllabus is not part of the opinion, but is a summary prepared by the court reporter as a convenience.)

Applicants for general relief are entitled to due process which the county did not provide. The injunction issued by the district court needed to be more specific, but the appellate court remanded the case to the district court to determine any particular requirements.
