28 La. Ann. 709 | La. | 1876
The petitioners, in substance, allege that they have suffered damages from the “turpitude, fraud, slanders, and perjury of the defendant” in suit No. 1210 and in suit No. 2216. They allege that in answer to interrogatories on facts and articles defendant falsely and
Defendant filed the following pleas: Bes judicata, estoppel, and no cause of action, which were sustained, we think, properly. The present suits are to recover the damages which they failed to recover in the former suit, and the demands are renewed on the ground that defendant swore falsely when interrogated on facts and articles in the former suits. There would be no end to litigation if such suits were countenanced.' The petitions show no cause of action.
It is therefore ordered that the judgment be affirmed with costs of appeal.
