In Re: Coverys Specialty Insurance Company and Donna Boudreaux, Wife of and Curtis Boudreaux, applying for
supervisory writs, 19t1 i- Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 688371.
BEFORE: HIGGINBOTHAM, THERIOT, AND WOLFE, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED. After a de novo review, accepting as true the allegations set forth in plaintiffs' petition, we conclude that the claims sound in tort and do not fall within the provisions of the Louisiana Medical Malpractice Act. Accordingly, the district court erred in sustaining the defendant' s exception of
prematurity and staying the matter pending a review panel' s
decision. The September 28, 2020 district court judgment is reversed and the exception of prematurity filed by defendant, Oceans Behavioral Hospital of Deridder, LLC, is denied. See Rivera v. Bolden' s Transportation Service, Inc., 2011- 1669 ( La.
App. 1st Cir. 6/ 28/ 12), 97 So. 3d 1096.
