“"The case of Gastauer v. Gastauer, 143 La. 749 , 79 So. 326 , holds that a suit for separation or divorce, which has been dismissed, is considered as not having been filed. "The case of Ohanna v. Ohanna, La. App., 129 So.2d 249 , is merely confirmatory of LSA-C.C. Art. 150 that the husband cannot contract a debt binding the community during the pendency of the suit, and has no application to a debt contracted by the husband before the filing of his successful suit."”
