BEFORE : THERIOT, BALFOUR, AND HAGGERTY,! Ju.

STAY DENIED; WRIT GRANTED WITH ORDER. The Orders of Protection Signed on March 26, 2026 and April 1, 2026, respectively, are appealable. See Pellerano v. Pellerano, 2017-0302 (La. App. ist Cir. 4/12/19), 275 So.3d 947, 949, writ denied sub nom., Acosta v. Pellerano, 2019-00756 (La. 9/17/19), 279 So.3d 379 (citing La. Code Civ. P. art. 2083(C); La. R.S. 46:2136(F) (1)). Therefore, the writ is granted for the limited purpose of remanding this matter to the trial court with instructions to grant appeals to defendants, Donald Sullivan and Kathy Sullivan, pursuant to the pleading that notified the trial court of defendants’ intention to seek supervisory writs. See In re Howard, 541 So.2d 195, 197 (ha.

1989) (per curiam). Additionally, a copy of this court’s order is to be included in the appellate record.

Furthermore, to the extent the trial court(s) ordered a stay of any provisions of the Orders of Protection, the stay order is reversed, and relators’ stay requests filed with this court are denied in all respects. See e.g. Barber v. Barber, 2015-1021 (La. App. lst Cir. 4/15/16), 2016 WL 1535195, *3 (unpublished), writ denied, 2016-0934 (La. 6/17/16), 192 S0.3d 771 (“LSA-R.S.

46:2136(F) (1) affords the trial court no such discretion to suspend the protective order during the pendency of an appeal.”).
