In , Jay Freedman told us
an interesting story. My reply to this story is at the bottom of this
message.

Yes, but Louisiana's common law is historically based on French law
instead of English, so it differs even more than elsewhere in the US.


On a tangent:
Would that be pre- or (post-)Napoleontic French law? Belgian law is
also based on Napoleontic law.
