Carrera v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co.
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided June 19, 1992
599 So. 2d 1091; 1992 La. LEXIS 2151; 1992 WL 136612 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Carrera v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Granted. The appeal from the 1991 judgment did not seek to modify the 1990 judgment which merely fixed the amount of total damages. Rather, the appeal sought to obtain review of the 1991 judgment which was based on medical payment coverage issues not presented or decided in the 1990 judgment and on events occurring after the 1990 judgment.

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court denying relator’s appeal is reversed, and the district court is ordered to grant the appeal.
