Opinion text

HAMITER, Judge. The appeal in this case is from a judgment sustaining an exception of no cause of action filed by defendant. In his petition, plaintiff alleges that he received injuries while riding on a freight train owned and negligently operated by defendant company, and prays damages therefor. • It is obvious that appellant has abandoned the appeal, for he has made no appearance in its behalf, either through oral argument or brief. In a situation of this kind, the judgment appealed from will not be disturbed. Calhoun v. Hodges (La. App.) 174 So. 209 , and cases therein cited. The judgment is affirmed.
