The plaintiff sued defendants for rent and provisionally seized the movable property in the premises, consisting of sugar and molasses, as subject to the lessor’s privilege. C. Cavaroc & Son intervened, claiming the said property as owners. Plaintiff reconvened, alleging that Cavaroc & Son were partners of Fairbanks & Gilman, and liable in solido with them for the rent and damages claimed in the main action.
Judgment was rendered in favor of plaintiff against .defendants, with privilege on the property seized, rejecting the demand of the interven-ors and that of plaintiff in the reconvention, from which intervenors appealed, and plaintiff asks that it be amended on his reconventional demand.
The contract between the intervcnors and defendants and the evidence in the record show this property to be of the kind designated in this article. Merchandise sent to the, establishment of defendants to be made up ” or manufactured for intervenors was actually manufactured and was to be sold for their account either by themselves or defendants. And by a special stipulation in the contract it was to be ■exempt from storage, while it is shown that intervenors are not in any contingency indebted to defendants under their contract. Under such •circumstances the. property, of the intervenors (which has been sold by consent) cannot be held liable to the privilege existing against defendants in favor of their lessor, Coleman.
It is therefore ordered that the judgment appealed from be reversed so far only as it dismisses the demand of the intervenors, 0. Cavaroc & ñon, and that there be judgment in favor of said intervenors, setting aside the provisional seizure herein and decreeing them to be the owners of the, property so seized and entitled to the proceeds thereof with the costs of intervention, and that in other respects the said judgment •be. affirmed, appellees paying costs of appeal.
Rehearing refused.
