INCOMPETENCY ,
French law .
The state of a judge who cannot take cognizance of a dispute brought before him ;
it implies a want of jurisdiction .
2 .
Incompetency is material ,
ratione materia ,
or personal ,
ratione personae .
The first takes place when a judge takes cognizance of a matter over which another judge has the sole jurisdiction ,
and this cannot be cured by the appearance or agreement of the parties .

The second is ,
when the matter in dispute is within the jurisdiction of the judge ,
but the parties in the case are not ;
in which case they make the judge competent ,
unless they make their objection before they .
take defence .

The greatest delicacy ,
is constantly observed on the part of judges ,

The slightest degree of pecuniary interest is considered as an insuperable objection .
