KHALID ATAYA NO. 22-C-94 VERSUS FIFTH CIRCUIT NISA SUANPHAIRIN COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF LOUISIANA

March 11, 2022 Susan Buchholz First Deputy Clerk

IN RE NISA SUANPHAIRIN APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE NANCY A. MILLER, DIVISION "I", NUMBER 760-773

Panel composed of Judges Fredericka Homberg Wicker, Robert A. Chaisson, and Hans J. Liljeberg

WRIT GRANTED Relator Nisa Suanphairin seeks supervisory review of a February 24, 2022 judgment of the district court denying her motion to stay a January 14, 2022 order from the Domestic Commissioner for the 24th Judicial District Court that granted a motion for contempt filed by respondent Khalid Ataya and ordered relator’s “immediate imprisonment at the Jefferson Parish Jail for a period of ninety (90) days without the possibility of parole, probation, or early release.” In a separate pleading, relator has also appealed the February 24, 2022 judgment of the district court that made final the Domestic Commissioner’s January 14, 2022 order and dismissed relator’s objection to the same.

We construe relator’s application as a request to this Court to stay the execution of her 90-day jail sentence for contempt, pending final determination of the merits of her appeal. On the showing made, we grant relator’s request and stay the execution of relator’s 90-day jail sentence for contempt, pending final 22-C-94 determination of the merits of her appeal. This stay pertains only to relator’s 90- day jail sentence for contempt in this matter and shall have no effect on any other sentences relator may be concurrently serving or upon any bond obligation imposed upon relator for other criminal charges.

Gretna, Louisiana, this 11th day of March, 2022.
