Issac Collins v. John Monticou.
    A party who takes a suspensive appeal and abandons it, cannot afterwards take a devolutive appeal.
    APPEAL from the District Court of the Parish of Jefferson, Olmdee, J.
    
      Race & Foster, for plaintiff. Michel, for defendant and appellant.
   Campbell, J.

The plaintiff and appellee move to dismiss the appeal, on the ground, that a previous appeal was taken and abandoned by the appellant.

The record discloses that, on the 28d May, 1832, a suspensive appeal was ' granted on the petition of appellant, and that the required bond was filed the same day. It further appears, that this appeal was never brought up ; but that in December of the same year, appellant applied for and obtained the devolutive appeal now before the Court. .

The appeal taken, having thus been abandoned, cannot be renewed. C. P. 594. Dozer v. Sargent, 4 L. 41. Roberts v. Beuler, 1 R. 100.

It is therefore decreed, that this appeal be dismissed at the costs of appellant.
