Cheatham v. City of New Orleans
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided March 20, 1981 · Calogero
396 So. 2d 301; 1981 La. LEXIS 7356 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Cheatham v. City of New Orleans

Opinion of the Court

In Re: Luke Fontana, applying for writs of Certiorari, or Review, to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, Parish of Orleans, Numbers 12,067 and 12,084.

Writ denied.

Concurring Opinion

CALOGERO, J.,

concurs in the denial.

I concur in the denial of writs herein being of the view that the Court of Appeal decision concerned only the procedural posture of the case and not the merits of relator’s claim, and I agree that relator may not proceed summarily in an effort to enforce a lien against the City of New Orleans.
