Lee v. Allstate Insurance Co.
483 So. 2d 146 | La. | 1986
In re Lee, Theodore C. Jr.; applying for stay, supervisory writ; Parish of Orleans, Civil District Court, Div. “C”, No. 82-3961; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. C-5209.
Denied in part and granted in part. The request for continuance is denied. The ruling of the trial judge (if he has so ruled) that the “new-found” witnesses may not testify is modified, and plaintiff shall be permitted to make a record, before the trial begins, out of the presence of the jury, of the testimony of the new-found witnesses, and of any evidence relevant to the exclusion of the testimony as a violation of the pre-trial order. The trial judge may then issue such orders as he deems appropriate in the interest of justice.
