Supreme Court of Louisiana June 14, 1897, No. 12,173 (Carter v. State)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Breaux, J.

The plaintiff sought to revive a judgment rendered ten years, less a few days, before his petition for the revival had been filed.

The plaintiff, at the time that suit was brought to recover a judgment upon his claim, had been authorized to sue the defendant in any court of competent jurisdiction. Act 81 of 1884.
