In re Wagoner, Neil L.; — Defendant(s); applying for writ of certiorari and/or review, supervisory and/or remedial writs; Parish of Orleans, Civil District Court, Div. “E”, No. 88-17897; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. 90CW-0316.

Granted. Judgment of the district court is reversed insofar as it did not deny plaintiffs jury trial against Neil Wagoner, Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Development.
