The duel between Ted and Buck was against the law. Duels were outlawed in New Orleans as early as 1722 and in all of Louisiana when it became a state in 1812, but the laws were lightly enforced. Serious enforcement of the laws against dueling began in 1855, but there were occasional duels until 1889 when the last reported duel occurred.
