JOHNSON v. TRANSPORTATION SERVICES LLC (2022)

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

Thaddeus Jeffery JOHNSON, Sr., Individually, Candace Howard, Individually and on Behalf of Their Minor Child, Thaddeus Jeffery Johnson, Jr. (Deceased) v. C'S TRANSPORTATION SERVICES, LLC, American Service Insurance Company, Inc., Charles Sanders and Delacy Diane Howard

No. 2022-CC-00260

Decided: April 12, 2022

Writ application granted in part. See per curiam.

Granted in part. Considering the unusual procedural history of this matter, we find the court of appeal erred in assessing all appeal costs against plaintiffs/appellees. In the interest of equity, the judgment of the court of appeal is amended to provide each party shall bear its own costs. See La. Code Civ. P. art. 2164. The writ is denied in all other respects.

Crain, J., dissents in part.
