Syllabus

<p>LICENSE SUIT — APPEAL BY STATE — JURISDICTION.</p> <p>1. Where the issue involved in a license suit in the First city court was exclusively one of fact, the state had the right to appeal from an adverse decision to the court of appeal, as the “matter in dispute” was, as to amount, appeal-able to that court. Had the appeal been taken to the Supreme Court, it would have been dismissed. Sheriff v. Bank of Morgan City, 46 La. Ann. 1483, 16 South. 453; Moss v. New-house, 52 La. Ann. 945, 27 South. 536; State v. Tolman, 106 La. 662, 31 South. 320.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
