View this case - free  

Overview: Appeal of trial court's ruling denying mandatory injunction would be waste of judicial resources; instead, appeal should await determination of the amount of money damages complainant was entitled to. Also, review of trial court's ruling denying exception of failure to join proper parties was inappropriate. Thus, appeal was dismissed as premature.

View this case - free  

Overview: In a workers' compensation case, a claim of prescription was not heard on appellate review since no motion for such was filed under La. Code Civ. Proc. Ann. art. 2163; it was not enough to merely mention the topic. Further, there was nothing to corroborate a claim that a back injury was caused by a work-related accident.
