SARAH CHRISTINE KING NO. 2021 CW 1607

VERSUS

HARELY WAYNE KING, SR. MARCH 28, 2022

In Re: Sarah Christine King, applying for supervisory writs, Family Court in and for the Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 217008.

BEFORE: MCDONALD, LANIER, AND WOLFE, JJ.

WRIT GRANTED. The trial court' s November 9, 2021 judgment

granting the Motion to Disqualify Attorney filed by Gina Gaspard is reversed.A party' s lack of standing ( no right of action) may be noticed by this court on its own motion. See Chrysler First Fin. Servs. Corp. v. ZIA Corp., 542 So. 2d 87, 89 ( La. App. 1st Cir. 1989)( citing La. Code Civ. P. art. 927). We find the

moving party, Gina Gaspard, lacked standing to seek

disqualification of the attorney representing Sarah Christine

King. See Keith v. Keith, 48, 919 ( La. App. 2d Cir. 5/ 15/ 14), 140 So. 3d 1202, 1209. Accordingly, the Motion to Disqualify Attorney is denied.
