Syllabus

<p>1. When a plaintiff resides in a different parish from the defendant, he defendant may institute a demand in reconvention against him for any cause, and he may do so either by way of answer to the main demand, or by instituting a distinct and separate demand before the Court in which the main demand is pending.</p> <p>2. In such case the orginal plaintiff shall be bound to answer without pleading to the jurisdiction, even if he has his domicile elsewhere.</p> <p>3. In matters of jurisdiction, proof is admissible at any time irrespective of the pleadings, where such proof supplies a hiatus.</p>
