Blessey v. Kearny

Appellees move to dismiss this appeal on two grounds:

First — Want of citation.

The judgment was signed in April and the appeal granted, on motion, in May. The appellees say the terms of the district courts of the parish of Orleans are monthly, and citations of appeal are, therefore, necessary in cases like this, and they cite the ease of Cuddey v. Belle-ville Iron Works Company, 4 An. 584, to sustain them.

Since that decision, this point has been reviewed by this court and a different conclusion adopted. Bethancourt v. Stephens, 19 An. 291, Fisk v. Gibbs, Bright & Co., opinion book 38, page 264.
