24 La. Ann. 154 | La. | 1872
The plaintiff brought this action to have the boundary between bis land and that of tho defendants recognized and fixed; he alleged that the defendants wore disregarding the ancient boundary, and he obtained an injunction to restrain defendants from disturbing his possession.
The defendants disregarded this injunction and took possession of about one hundred acres of the cleared lands of plaintiff, and commenced to cultivate it. The plaintiff obtained á second injunction to prevent defendants from passing the ancient boundary, and from occupying and cultivating the said one hundred acres.
The defendants then obtained an order to sot aside the injunction upon giving bond, and upon executing their bond the injunction was ■dissolved.
At the first term of the court thereafter held, the plaintiff moved to have the order setting aside the injunction rescinded, on the grounds that the said injunction could not he set asidfe by giving bond, as tbe injury complained of was irreparable.
The question is then, was or was not the injury complained of, and ;to prevent which the injunction was granted, irreparable?
“Where the consequences of the order are such as cannot be reme•died by a final decree, and the party will be driven for protection of ¡his rights to another suit for the same cause of action, the injury is irreparable.” . 14 An. 57, White v. Casanave, 7 R. 442, 12 An. 455. In Marion v. Johnson we said “when the acts complained of amount 'to a trespass, and the effect of dissolving the injunction wrould be a «change of possession of immovable property,” the injury is irreparable. 22 An. 512. Such, it would seem, would be the result of the dissolution of the injunction in this case.
It is therefore ordered and adjudged that the order appealed from be rescinded and annulled, and that the injunction be reinstated. It •is further ordered that appellees pay costs of the appeal.
