Opinion

SCOFIELD, Judge.¹

For the reasons set forth in the companion case hereto, William Anderson, et ux. v. Metropolitan Property and Casualty Ins. Co. d/b/a/ Met Life Auto & Home and/or Economy Fire and Casualty Co., 04-717 (La.App. 3 Cir. 12/8/2004), 890 So.2d 677, we reverse the judgment of the trial court insofar as it assesses Defendant, Mrs. Willie Mae Berryman, with 50% liability in the accident of November 25, 2002, and absolve her of any fault in the accident. Further, we find William Anderson, Jr., to be 100% at fault. The remaining issue on appeal is moot.

All costs at the trial level, subject to the terms of the dismissals, are assessed against William Anderson, Jr., and Metropolitan Property and Casualty Insurance Company d/b/a/ Met Life Auto & Home and/or Economy Fire and Casualty Company. All costs of this appeal are assessed against appellee, William Anderson, Jr.

REVERSED AND RENDERED.
