IN RE: Medical Review Panel re: Thomas SMITH, Sr. v. Dr. David C. PELLEGRIN, et al.
ON SUPERVISORY WRITS TO THE 32nd JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF TERREBONNE
Writ denied.
I concur with the writ denial in this case. We declined to exercise our supervisory jurisdiction in this case because relator has an adequate remedy on appeal. Once the district court rendered a final judgment, any interlocutory judgments, including the rulings on relator's pauper status, were merged into the final judgment and are reviewable on appeal. See La. Code Civ. P. art. 1915(B)(2).
HUGHES, J., concurs and assigns reasons.
