Opinion

COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT GINA SMITH SHORT NO. 2023 CW 0965

VERSUS

JAMES KEITH SHORT OCTOBER 16, 2023

In Re: James Keith Short, applying for supervisory writs,

Court in for the Parish of East Baton Family and Rouge, No. 222618.

BEFORE: McCLENDON, WOLFE, AND HESTER, JJ.

STAY DENIED; WRIT DENIED. The September 25, 2023 judgment finding relator in contempt and imposing punishment against relator appears to be a final, appealable judgment. As such, relator has an adequate remedy by suspensive appeal. See Capital City Press, LLC v. Louisiana State Univ., 2013- 1994 ( La. 8/ 28/ 13), So. 3d 250 (" 120 Insofar as relator is aggrieved by the August 2013 judgment imposing sanctions for contempt, it has 14, an adequate remedy by suspensive appeal.") citing La. Code Civ. P. art. 1915 ( A) ( 6) .
