Where an appeal lias been granted, and is still pending in the Supreme Court, the court a qua, is without jurisdiction to grant a second appeal from the same judgment.
APPEAL from the Parish Court of Caddo. Oreswell, Parish Judge.
T. T. Land and George Williamson, for appellee. Nutt & Leonard, for opponents and appellants.

Opinion:
Taliaferro, J.
A motion to dismiss the appeal filed on the first day of the present term is made, and several grounds are stated in support of the motion.
The counsel for the appellees contend that, as the case stands now on appeal filed at the August term of this court, 1869, and is still pending in this court, the court below was without jurisdiction to grant an appeal.
This ground is well taken. See 12 Rob. Reports, 320,
It is therefore ordered that the appeal filed at the present term of this court be dismissed, at costs of the appellant.
