Opinion:
His Honor, EMILE GODCHAUX,
rendered the opinion and decree of the Court, as follows:
Appellant appeals from .a judgment dissolving his injunction directed against a writ of executory process issued at appellee's instance to enforce the payment of a mortgage note of $2,000.00 and 2 per cent thereof as attorney's fees stipulated in the act of mortgage.
The appellee has moved that the appeal be transferred to the Supreme Court under Act 56 of 1904 on the ground that the sum involved exceeds $2,000.00. The motion is. well-grounded, since in determining the jurisdiction of this Court on appeal, the attorneys' fees of 2 per cent on the amount of the note must be added to the principal of the note in fixing the amount in dispute. .
