The parties to this suit were before us last year, oh an appeal from the following judgment: “ In this case, for the reasons assigned in the written opinion of the court this day delivered and on file : It is ordered, adjudged and decreed, that the plaintiffs’ petition be dismissed ; that the attachment herein issuedibe dissolved; that the intervention herein filed by/. W.Twyman, J. R. Goodloe and J. E. Hoskins, be maintained; and that the property attached be delivered to them, and that plaintiffs pay all costs of suit.” This judgment was affirmed, with the single reservation “ of the rights of .the plaintiffs, as creditors with the vendor’s privilege.” See reported case, 15 An. 110.
The debt of the plaintiffs having matured, they renewed their action by attachment, citing all the parties to the original suit.
As the p’aintiffs avowedly prosecute this action by reason of the reservation made in our former decree, a recovery must necessarily depend on the proof of a privilege.
All the parties in interest reside in the State of Kentucky, and the sale of the movables herein attached was made in the place of their domicil.
The privilege claimed by the plaintiffs must, therefore, result from the laws of Kentucky, for the vendor’s privilege recognized under our Code does not apply to such a case.
The fact that a portion of the goods conveyed was, at the date of the contract, in New Orleans, does not alter the case, for, as a general rule, movables have no situs.
Now it is in evidence that the common law is the basis of the jurisprudence of Kentucky, and we all know that the vendor’s privilege on movables is unknown to the common law. C. C.10; Whiston v. Stodder, 8 M. 98; Colt v. O’Callaghan, 2 An. 984; Copley v. Sanford, 2 An. 335; Hennen’s Dig. p. 1070, No. 28.
The case of Beirne & Burnside v. Patton et al. 17 L; 589, is an exception to the general rule that movables have no locality, and has no application to the case at bar, for in that case the plaintiffs were citizens of this State, pursuing rights created in the State, while here they are all citizens of another State, attempting to enforce obligations and contracts created in their own State.
We therefore conclude, that the District Judge properly rejected the claim of the plaintiffs, but erred in condemning them to pay five per cent, per annum interest on the amount attached in the hands of the garnishees, as also two hundred dollars counsel’s fees. We do not think that this is a proper case for damages; it *159is not a case of injunction ; 'the plaintiffs are not in possession of the funds attached, and they litigated their pretensions under a decree of this Court.
It is therefore ordered, adjudged and decreed, that the five per cent, per annum interest, and the two’hundred dollars, allowed by the judgment of the District Court, be rejected, and that the judgment, amended as above, be affirmed, the ap-pellees paying costs of appeal.
