Head Matter:
Jean Pujol and others v. Francois Correjolles.
No appeal will lie from a claim for three hundred dollars, with interest, where the interest, being ex mora, began to run only from judicial demand. Const., art. 4, sect. 2. C. P. 91.
Appeal from the Commercial Court of New Orleans, Watts, J.
JR. Hunt, for the plaintiffs.
JBarthe, for the appellant.

Opinion:
Morphy, J.
In this suit, which is on an account for work and labor done, and materials furnished, in repairing the steamboat Pontchartrain, the petitioner claims 1300, with interest, and costs of suit. The interest claimed being ex mom, accrued only since the judicial demand. It is, therefore, clear, that the claim was one not exceeding ft300 at the institution of the suit: no appeal can therefore lie. Constitution, art. 4, sect. 2. Code of Practice, art. 91.
Appeal dismissed.
