Louisiana Court of Appeal · Decided May 30, 1985 · Edwards, Shortess, Voie
476 So. 2d 815; 1985 La. App. LEXIS 10039 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Hampton v. State ex rel. Department of Corrections

Opinion of the Court

EDWARDS, Judge.

This matter is before the court on plaintiff-appellee’s motion to dismiss the appeal on the basis of prematurity, i.e., the appeal was taken prior to a written judgment being signed.

A review of the record, however, discloses that a written judgment was signed on February 15,1985, and defendant timely filed a motion to appeal on April 15, 1985. See LSA-C.C.P. art. 2087. Consequently, the motion to dismiss is hereby denied.
