Burchik v. Yazoo M. v. R. Co.
Louisiana Court of Appeal · Decided December 3, 1937 · Hamiter
177 So. 484 (Southern Reporter)

Burchik v. Yazoo M. v. R. Co.

Opinion of the Court

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.
