Ellery v. Amelung's Syndics

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

Heis only to be collocated on the tableau for that sum. The code allows a pri- *243viledge in favour of law charges, frais de justice. The English expression. is rather vague-the French one is only, costs of court : taxed costs.

Mazureau, for the plaintiff. Moreau, for the defendants.

A creditor who claims to be paid, in exclusion of the others, must make out his right strictly. Priviledges are odious and should be restrained.

Priviledge denied.
