Head Matter:
No. 2634.
The State of Louisiana, for the use of the City of New Orleans, v. Phillip Dopf and J. B. Nick.
The Supreme Court will ex officio notice the fact, and dismiss the appeal, if the amount claimed does not exceed five hundred dollars at the time judicial demand was made.
APEAL from Fifth District Court, parish of Orleans. Beaumont, J.
F. Mieldnard, for plaintiff and appellant. McGloin & Kleinpeter, for defendant and appellee.

Opinion:
Ludeling, C. J.
The plaintiff sues for the recovery of a forfeited bond for five hundred dollars, with legal interest from judicial demand.
It is our duty to notice that this court is without jurisdiction in the case, as the amount claimed did not exceed five hundred dollars when judicial demand was made.
It is therefore ordered that the appeal be dismissed.
Rehearing refused.
