Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Reports of Cases Argued and Determined in the Supreme Court of Louisiana, Vol. 47: For the Year 1895
Judge Poché brought to the bench a mind well equipped with legal principles, a rare alertness and quickness of comprehension, a phenomenally retentive memory, a vigorous and acute logical faculty and power of nice distinction, a broad sense of justice and an indomitable firmness and courage in his convictions. The clarity of his reason and conclusions found expression in a terse and nervous style of English composition, which made his opinions models of directness, clearness and vigor. His judicial service was rendered in a formative period of our jurisprudence, involving the interpreta tion of a new and original Constitution, bristling with novel princi ples, powers and limitations, and requiring the entire readjustment of our jurisprudence on many subjects and its adaptation to changed conditions.
