WRIT DENIED.

Hester, J., dissents. I would reverse the district court' s ruling that denied the exception filed of prematurity by defendant, The Haven II, LLC. After a de nova review, I conclude plaintiff' s claim sounds in malpractice and thus falls within the provisions of the Louisiana Medical Malpractice Act, La. R. S. 40: 1299. 41, the et seq. Accordingly, claim should be presented to a Medical Review Panel before the district court suit can proceed.
