Howell v. Sheriff of East Feliciana
Also decided on this docket: La. Ct. App. 1st Cir., December 14, 1962 148 So. 2d 306; La. Ct. App. 3d Cir., November 10, 1976 338 So. 2d 1199
Howell v. Sheriff of East Feliciana, 27 La. 701 (1875).
Opinion text
Morgan, J. This is an injunction suit, instituted against the sheriff to restrain him from executing a writ which issued in the case of Riley v. Howell. In that case (Riley v. Howell) we annulled the judgment on the ground of want of jurisdiction of the court which rendered it. If the judgment was a nullity, no execution could rightfully issue under it. The judgment of the district court, therefore, which maintained the injunction, is correct. Judgment affirmed.
