Opinion of the Court

In re Kenneth H. Lavabais, applying for certiorari, or writ of review, to the Court of Appeal, Third Circuit. Parish of Avoyelles. No. 8152.

Granted. The ruling of the Court of Appeal to the effect that the car could not be a total loss because the cost of repair did not exceed its stipulated value is reversed, and the case is remanded to the Court of Appeal to fix the damages for the car in an amount which will compensate for the damages as nearly as possible on the record before it.
