In Re: Mandeville Shelter Care, LLC d/ b/ a/ Beau Provence and

D. C.Schonberg & Associates, LLC and Kristie Bankston,

applying for supervisory writs, 22nd Judicial District Court, Parish of St. Tammany, No. 2019- 15802.

BEFORE: GUIDRY, HOLDRIDGE, AND CHUTZ, JJ.

WRIT DENIED.

JMG WRC

Holdridge, J., concurs and would deny the writ, as the transcript of the August 3, 2021 hearing on defendants' " Motion to Compel Arbitration and Stay Proceedings Brought in Violation of Arbitration Agreement" reveals no evidence was introduced or admitted during the hearing, including the subject arbitration

agreement. The party seeking to enforce an arbitration

agreement carries the burden of proving the existence of a valid arbitration agreement. See Alfortish v. GreenSky, LLC, No. CV 16- 15084, 2017 WL 699830, * 3( E. D. La. 2/ 22/ 17) ( citing FIA Card Services, N. A. v. Weaver, 2010- 1372 ( La. 3/ 15/ 11), 62 So. 3d 709, 719). Accordingly, the trial court did not err in denying defendants' motion.
