Syllabus

<p>Syllabus.</p> <p>1. Appellate courts have jurisdiction of incidental demands, and, particularly, oyer-costs, such as depend on the event of a suit which are to be paid after its termination.</p> <p>2. The judgment is intended to embrace within its terms all questions regarding costs. If, for any reason, there remains an undecided question regard ing the costs, after the decision has been rendered, and a question of interpretation or construction arises, the court by which the judgment was rendered, is the court of competent jurisdiction.</p> <p>3. The Court of Appeal had not rendered the judgment on appeal in which the costs were incurred. The judgment was rendered by the Supreme Court, and this court is vested with jurisdiction of a rule to tax costs in its own judgments.</p>
