Moreau v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Ins. Co.

Supreme Court of Louisiana
Mar 31, 1975
311 So. 2d 223 (La. 1975)

Opinion

No. 55382.

March 31, 1975.

ON WRIT OF REVIEW TO THE THIRD CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEAL, PARISH OF IBERIA.

Jack B. Wise, Caillouet Wise, Thibodaux, for plaintiff-applicant.

L. Albert Forrest, Roy Forrest, New Iberia, for defendants-respondents.


This is an action for damages instituted by Mrs. Beverly Ann Herbert Moreau, against Paul R. Green, Allstate Insurance Company, Joseph Chaisson and State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. Plaintiff appealed from a summary judgment rendered by the trial court dismissing the suit as to defendant State Farm. We granted writs. 298 So.2d 907.

This suit was consolidated for trial and appeal and argument in this Court with a companion suit instituted by Mr. Robert J. Herbert and arising out of the same accident. We are today rendering judgment in that suit. See Herbert v. Green, et al., 311 So.2d 223.

For the reasons which we assign in the Herbert case the decision of the Court of Appeal is reversed; the summary judgment dismissing plaintiff's law suit is likewise reversed and the case is remanded to the District Court for further proceedings.

Reversed and remanded.
