Louise Vialès seeks to be separated in property from her husband Dorsino Lejeune. Louise represents that, upon her 1836 marriage to Dorsino, she brought $340 and three slaves in dowry. She now contends that the said dowry is in danger due to the disorder of her husband’s affairs and that his estate is insufficient to meet her rights and claims. She therefore prays to be separated in property from her husband and to regain the administration of her property. She also seeks to recover her $340 and the control of her two surviving slaves. Furthermore, she seeks a mortgage on Dorsino’s immoveable property and a privilege on his moveable property to secure her claim.
Result: Granted.
