Darnelle Bordelon ARCENEAUX v. Bryan David ARCENEAUX
Darnelle Bordelon Arceneaux v. Bryan David Arceneaux
Writ granted. Considering the well-settled rule that a trial court's factual findings regarding the nature of property as being either community or separate are subject to a manifest error/clearly wrong standard of review, we find no manifest error in the trial court's judgment. We therefore vacate the judgment of the court of appeal and reinstate the trial court's judgment. See Cosman v. Cosman, 22-0694, p. 5 (La. App. 1 Cir. 1/10/23), 360 So. 3d 892, 896, writ denied, 23-00299 (La. 5/2/23), 359 So. 3d 1272.
VACATED; TRIAL COURT JUDGMENT REINSTATED.
PER CURIAM
Crain, J., dissents and would deny. Griffin, J., dissents and would deny. Glen Strong, ad hoc Justice, dissents and would deny. Weimer, C. J., recused. Hughes, J., recused.
