Bonnecaze v. Grannery
Bonnecaze v. Grannery
Opinion of the Court
The judgment of the court was pronounced by
L. Bonnecaze sued M. Grannery upon anote, the payment of which was secured by a mortgage on a house and lot in the town of Baton Rouge. Before obtaining judgment, the heirs of Grannery’s deceased wife intervened, and set up a claim in right of their mother, to the mortgaged property, &c. Exceptions were filed by Bonnecaze to their petition of intervention. Judgment was rendered in favor of Bonnecaze, on his note against Grannery, and no action was at that time taken on the intervention. Execution
On the application of the plaintiff, the case was tried before a jury, who returned a verdict in favor of the defendant. He has appealed from the judgment rendered thereon.
It is manifest, that before the sale the plaintiff was apprized of the danger of eviction, which he now alleges ; he cannot, therefore, under the textual provivisions of article 2535 of the code, suspend the payment of the price. He has no action until he is evicted.
The judgment is therefore affirmed, with costs.
