DEVON ENERGY PRODUCTION COMPANY, L.P. v. LOUISIANA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND THOMAS HARRIS, IN HIS CAPACITY AS SECRETARY OF THE LOUISIANA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES
Devon Energy Production Company, L.P., applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 699354.
BEFORE: McCLENDON, WELCH, AND HESTER, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED WITH ORDER. The trial court's March 23, 2022 ruling denying the motion for summary judgment filed by Devon Energy Production Company, LP, is hereby vacated. When the trial court originally issued the alternative writ of mandamus order, the court ordered defendants to show cause why the mandamus relief should not issue. See La. Code Civ. P. art. 38 65. Although set for a show cause hearing, the matter was stayed. The matter is remanded and the trial court is instructed to conduct the show cause hearing on the petition for mandamus.
