Supreme Court of Louisiana
Emile M. Babst Co. v. Commercial Enterprises, Inc., 277 So. 2d 673 (La. 1973)
Barham

Emile M. Babst Co. v. Commercial Enterprises, Inc.

Opinion of the Court

In re: Emile M. Babst Co., Inc. applying for certiorari, or writ of review, to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, Parish of Orleans. 274 So.2d 742.

Writ denied. There is no error of law in the judgment of the Court of Appeal.

Dissenting Opinion

BARHAM, J.,

is of the opinion the writ should be granted. Relator, as pledgee of stock seeks only to mandamus the corporation to record him on the books of the corporation as pledgee of these stocks. He does not claim ownership or rights of ownership. The cases cited by the Court of Appeal are inapposite since they speak of absolute ownership by conversion by the pledgee of the stock by requiring new stock without ordinary legal process.
