In Re: USAA Casualty Insurance Company and Thomas A. Ryan, applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 682975.
BEFORE: GUIDRY, McDONALD, AND McCLENDON, JJ.

JMG
McClendon, J., concurs.
McDonald, J., dissents and would grant the writ application. I find the trial court abused its discretion in its March 25, 2021 judgment granting, in part, the motion in limine filed by the plaintiff, Katrina Robertson, and excluding the June 20, 2020, October 3, 2020, October 18, 2020, and October 31, 2020 surveillance videos. See Olivier v. LeJeune
, 95-0053 (La. 2/28/96}, 668 So.2d 347, 351; Wolford v. JoEllen Smith Psychiatric Hospital, 96-2460 (La. 5/20/97), 693 So.2d 1164, 1167-68. Accordingly, I would reverse that portion of the trial court's March 25, 2021 judgment and deny the plaintiff's motion in limine to exclude the June 20, 2020, October 3, 2020, October 18, 2020, and October 31, 2020 surveillance videos.
