EXECUTORY PROCESS, via executoria. In Louisiana, this is a process which can
be resorted to only in two. cases, namely: 1. When the creditor's right
arises-from an act importing a confession of judgment, and which contains a
privilege or mortgage in his favor. 2. When the creditor demands the
execution of a judgment which has been rendered by a tribunal different from
that within whose jurisdiction the execution is sought. Code of Practice,
art. 732.
