346 So. 2d 1108; 1977 La. LEXIS 5195 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion of the Court

In re: Jesse H. Heard Constr. Inc., et al., applying for certiorari, or writ of review, to the Court of Appeal, 344 So.2d 719, Second Circuit, Parish of Ouachita.

Writ denied. We cannot say that the court of appeal’s interpretation of the statute is in error. The matter may address itself to the legislature.

Dissenting Opinion

DIXON, J.,

dissents from the denial, being of the opinion that the interpretation of R.S. 9:4801(C) by the court of appeal is erroneous, and should be corrected either by this court or by the legislature.

CALOGERO, J., is of the opinion the writ should be granted. DENNIS, J., would grant the writ to afford a full consideration of the issues of law presented.
