Supreme Court of Louisiana May 15, 1874, No. 3545 (Winn v. Spearing)

Morgan, J.

Plaintiff leased to the defendant a dwelling for ten months, commencing on December 1, 1870.

She brings this suit for nine months rent, and ten per cent., the agreed attorney’s fees in case of suit.

The lease is admitted, but defendant claims that by his contract the house was to be put in good repair prior to the first of February following, which he says was not done.
