JOHNSON, C.J., additionally concurs.

hi agree that defendant’s writ application in this matter, challenging the lower courts’ denial of its motion for summary judgment, was properly denied. However, I write separately to strongly encourage the district court to swiftly move this case toward a resolution.

Plaintiffs claim arises out of her termination as parish attorney in 1995—over twenty years ago. I urge the district court [253] to actively manage this litigation and set necessary deadlines for discovery and motions so that a trial on plaintiffs suit, pending for twenty years, can be scheduled soon.
