An action in eminent domain having been discontinued following proceedings in injunction to restrain condemnation of properties in the City of Los Angeles, a judgment of dismissal was entered, from which the plaintiff appealed.

Said judgment awarding attorney’s fees is reversed. Upon the authority of City of Los Angeles v. Abbott, 217 Cal. 184 [ 17 Pac. (2d) 993 ], the judgment of dismissal must be affirmed.

Works, P. J., and Stephens, J., concurred.

A petition for a rehearing of this cause was denied by the District Court of Appeal on March 3, 1933.
