Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Second Circuit.
SEXTON, Judge.
Appellant Harold L. Johnston was prohibited from selling beer by an ordinance enacted by appellee Morehouse Parish Police Jury pursuant to a local option election. He now brings this appeal to challenge the lower court's determination that both the ordinance and the election were legally valid and binding. We find that the local option election which was the predicate of the prohibitory ordinance was not authorized by law. We therefore reverse.
