| House bill No. 1853, entitled
| An act to extend the prescription OF debts
due the Poydras fund Of the parish of West
Baton Rouge to the term of thirty years.
| This act is, In my opinion, violatfve OF arti-
Gle 46 of the constitution, prohibitory of local
or special legislation in certain cases. Article
46 provides:
| "rhe General AS sen bly, shall not pass any
| local or special law on the following specified
| obi acts I Granting to any corporation, asso-
citation or individual any special exclusive
right, privilege or immunity"
| This is positive and absolute prohibition
| directed to the Legislature from granting
any special or exclusive right, privilege or
| immunity to any corporation, association or
| Individual
The extension or enlargement of the time
necessary to prescribe q debt due to any par
poratioD, which enlarges or curtails the
period of time determined by the general
laws Of the State and the statutes governing
prescription, is an Immunity or privilege en-
joyed bya particular Individual, association
or corporation, the grant OF which is not pos
sible under the constitution.
