Description

This is an action for damages to land in Louisiana, allegedly resulting from a geophysical trespass thereon by the appellee. The case went to trial on the merits and, at the conclusion thereof, the court below was of the opinion that the amount involved was not sufficient to confer jurisdiction on the federal district court in a controversy wholly between citizens of different states. Consequently, the suit was dismissed for want of federal jurisdiction. The appellant attacks the judgment of dismissal on the ground that it was not proper for the judge to dispose of a jurisdictional issue on a motion for a directed verdict for the defendant as to the merits. The appellant further claims that the amount in controversy exceeded the jurisdictional requirement.
