Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided April 15, 1881 · Fenner
33 La. Ann. 484

Counsel

Thos. Hunton for Appellants., •A. Robert and W. W. Howe for Plaintiffs and Appellees:

Escoubas v. Calcasieu Sulphur Mining Co.

Opinion of the Court

On Motion to Dismiss.

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Fenner, J.

This is an appeal by petition, by third persons, from a ■ judgment to which they were not parties.

The failure to cite, or demand citation of, the defendant in the judgment is fatal to the appeal. This Court has no power to revise the judgments of inferior tribunals, where the parties' thereto are not before it.

State vs. Wickliffe, 21 An. 755. It is unnecessary to consider other grounds assigned in the motion to dismiss.

It is, therefore, ordered that this appeal be dismissed, at appellants’ cost.
