STATE ex rel. SHIELDS, Inc. v. SOUTHPORT PETROLEUM CORPORATION OF DELAWARE.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

May 7, 1956.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edwards & Edwards, by Edwin W. Edwards, Crowley, for plaintiff-appellant.

Clay, Coleman & Dutrey, Elwood R. Clay, New Orleans, for appellee.

HAWTHORNE, Justice.

In this case we are called upon to review a judgment of the district court dismissing plaintiff's suit as abandoned under the provisions of Article 3519 of the Civil Code.1

The appeal was originally lodged in the Court of Appeal for the Parish of Orleans, and that court transferred the case here because the amount in dispute exceeded $2,000. See 78 So.2d 201.
