Syllabus

<p>Public Lands — State Lands — Application to Purchase — Right to Appeal.</p> <p>The state of Louisiana has seen fit to provide that its land shall be sold, under certain prescribed conditions, by the register of the land office, but it has further provided that the decisions of that officer may be reviewed by the courts; and, when the register, after hearing, has rendered his judgment in a particular case, rejecting the claim of an applicant and allowing a contestant to enter the land, and there is nothing left between the parties to the contest for him to decide, the appeal lies, and of necessity carries with it the questions, interlocutory or otherwise, which may have been raised, during the trial.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
