406. Such contestation is brought before the court by an ordinary action, which, on pain of nullity, must be served upon the interested parties within 30 days from the date of the election.
The action must be returned within six days from its service, and issue is joined within the same delays as in actions between lessor and lessee.
The plaintiff may also, in his action, indicate the person who has a right to the office in question, and state the facts necessary to establish such right, and pray that he be declared elected; in such case, the person whose election is contested may allege and prove that certain votes given to the other candidate were illegal.
