Massey v. Steeg

This case is a sequel to the case of the succession of Christine Herman, decided in January, 1856, and the case of William Massey et als. v. Steeg et al, 12 An. 78.

The plaintiff was a judgment creditor of John J. Steeg, with a judicial mortgage upon his immovable property. The common property, real and personal, existing at the death of Christine Herman, former wife of Steeg, was subsequently adjudicated to him contradictorily with the under-tutor to his minor children, under Art. 338 C. 0., for 152800. The real estate so adjudicated was purchased by plaintiff under his execution.
