capacity as speaker of the Louisiana House of Representatives, applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 700923.
BEFORE: THERIOT, WOLFE, AND HESTER, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED WITH ORDER. The district court' s January 30, 2021 order which set hearing a on exceptions, but attempted to except from such hearing the exceptions previously heard and decided by the court, is vacated. The per curiam judgment of the Louisiana Supreme Court herein vacated and set aside the district court' s judgment herein. All of the rulings of the district court, including its rulings on the exceptions filed herein, were included in that single judgment. Accordingly, the district court erred in refusing to hearing set the a on exceptions as it appears all rulings were vacated by the Supreme Court. The district court is instructed to schedule a hearing on the exceptions as requested in the motion to reset exceptions on a date which allows sufficient time for all parties to be noticed of the matters to be heard.
