A declinatory or a dilatory exception may not be amended so as to plead an objection not attempted to be set forth in the original exception.
A defendant may amend his peremptory exception at any time and without leave of court, so as to either amplify an objection set forth or attempted to be set forth in the original exception, or to plead an objection not set forth therein.
