15 La. 191

Ogilvie v. Faure

Opinion of the Court

Bullard, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

This case has been submitted to us without argument. It commenced with an order of seizure and sale of some lots in Greenville, upon a mortgage reserved by the vendor. Opposition was made, and an injunction obtained on the grounds, first, that a part of the lots sold to him by the plaintiff, were, in fact, public property; second, that another part were sold as batture lots, and represented as affording .valuable sites for saw mills, &c.; whereas, those representations are false; third, that the plaintiff had failed to construct a railroad from the Carrollton rail road to the levee, through the town, and that certain hotels had not been erected, according to promise.

The injunction was dissolved after a trial upon the merits, and the defendant appealed.

*192The record is incomplete; it appearing from the certificates of the clerk and of the judge, that all the evidence adduced on the trial below is not in the transcript; nor is there any assignment of errors, or bill of exceptions, taken by the appellant.

The appeal is, therefore, dismissed, with costs.
