Supreme Court of Louisiana January 15, 1841 (Purdee v. Cocke)

Morpity, J.

delivered the opinion of the court.

This suit had commenced by attachment against Charles F. Cocke. A few days after, plaintiff presented a petition, stating that, through error, defendant’s name had been set forth as Charles F. Cocke, when, in fact, his true name was Chastine Cocke, and asking that the original petition should be amended accordingly.
