APPEAL.

INDEX.

An appeal will not be dismissed on the ground of incompleteness of

the transcript, where the omission consists in testimony taken
after the judgment appealed from, on a rule for execution and the
judgment dismissing such rule is not brought up for review.

Widow Shelly et al. vs. M. Shelly, p. 100.

A money judgment on appeal can be amended by allowing interest due,
accidently omitted, without granting a rehearing.

J. E. Ealer vs. Widow Lodge et al., p. 115.

An application for further time to file a transcript made during the
course of a previous extension, and filed in the clerk's office, the
court not being in session, is ample protection to the mover.
The order of the court subsequently granting such application retroacts
to the day when the motion was filed.

Packet Company vs. J. J. Brown, p. 138.

Appeal lies from order of judge a quo rescinding his former voluntary
recusation against the protest of a party, and after the recusation
has been acted upon. Such order of rescission is illegal.

Church Wardens etc., vs. R. Rev. Perché et al., p. 160.
The only bond which can be required of a party appealing suspen-
sively from a judgment rendered against such party, as a judg-

Such a judgment does not condemn him to pay any sum of money or to
deliver any movable or immovable property; hence the appeal bond
is not regulated by Arts. 575, 576 and 577, Code of Practice.
In fixing the amount of a devolutive appeal bond, the judge of the
lower court must ascertain the amount of probable costs, and in
computing the same in appeals from the Civil District Court of the
parish of Orleans, he must consider the system which requires the
payment of the transcript to or otherwise provided for.

The State ex rel., Muller Bros vs. Judge etc., p. 189.
Where a party alleging that an order dissolving his injunction on bond
