On Application for Rehearing.
The decree rendered in this case is amended by reserving to relatrix the right to renew her application on complying with the rules of the court.
The petition for a rehearing is denied.
Opinion of the Court
This is an application for a mandamus to compel the respondent judge to grant a suspensive appeal from an order dissolving an injunction on bond.
Noncompliance with this requirement has. been repeatedly held to be fatal to the application. Howcott v. Ruddock Orleans Cypress Co., 147 La. 192, 84 South. 584.
In the present case there is no allegation of such notice having been given; but there is an allegation that the trial judge in open court accepted notice of the intention to make the present application, and counsel say that this was in the presence of opposite counsel, and they argue that it constituted a sufficient compliance with the said section 1 of rule 15.
The present application is therefore dismissed at the cost of relator.
336 La. xii.
Dissenting Opinion

My opinion is that the notification, given verbally by counsel for relatrix to the judge in open court and in presence of the attorneys for defendant, was a sufficient compliance with the rule requiring that notice shall be given to the judge and opposing counsel before application is made to this court for a supervisory writ. The petition of the relatrix, in this case, was considered and disposed of by the full bench in conference or consultation. The presumption is, and ought to be, that the affidavit as to the manner of giving notice was satisfactory; and, .where, as in this
