A decreet for expenses, in common cases, does not bind each defender in solidum, unless the words conjunctly and severally are added. But where two persons concur in bringing an action, upon the same medium, and with the same conclusion, they are liable in expenses in solidum, even although the words conjunctly and severally are not added. This would hold particularly in a process of ranking and sale; for it never could be pretended that one part of the process applied to one creditor, and another part to another.
