Supreme Court of Louisiana April 27, 1908, No. 16,902 (Taylor v. Staley)

PROYOSTY, J.

Defendant being an absentee, plaintiff proceeded by substituted process of appointment of curator ad hoc and attachment. The affidavit 'for the attachment was made by the attorney. The bond proved to be insufficient in amount — $8,000, instead of $8,077.09 — and defendant moved for dissolution on that ground. The discrepancy resulted, it is said, from a miscalculation of the interest.
