“"We find R.S. 31:180, 181, 182 and 183 clearly outline the procedures required to assure separate appraisal of the various interests; also to assure proper notice of and opportunity to oppose the appraisal before the court proceeds to homologate it and orders the sale and distribution of the proceeds. If this procedure is not followed, the mineral right of the appellant W.W. Johnstone in the property will not be affected. R.S. 31:184." [emphasis added]”
