Holdridge, J., dissents and would grant the writ application. I find the plaintiffs fai~ed to present sufficient evidence to demonstrate that a genuine issue of material fact exists as to their civil conspiracy claims. See New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Found., Inc. v. Kirksey, 2009-1433(La. App. 4th Cir. 5/26/10), 40 So.3d 394, 408, writ .denied, 2010-1475 (La. 10/1/10), 45 So.3d 1100 ("The actionabld element under [La. Civ. Code art.] 2324 is the intentional tort the conspirators agreed to commit and committed in whole or in part causing plaintiff's injury.") . Accordingly, I would grant the motion for partial summary judgment filed by Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College and Clay Crain, and dismiss plaintiffs' civil conspiracy claims.
