RS 9:3323: Appeal from judgment on rule

A suspensive appeal shall not be granted unless the lessee has answered the rule under oath, pleading an affirmative defense entitling him to retain possession of the leased movable, and the appeal has been applied for and the appeal bond filed within twenty-four hours after the rendition of the judgment. The amount of the suspensive appeal bond shall be determined by the court in an amount sufficient to protect the appellee against all such damage as he may sustain as a result of the appeal.
