FLOYD v. CITY OF NEW ORLEANS

No. 51173.

244 So.2d 857 (1971)

257 La. 984

Patricia T. FLOYD, Wife of/and William M. Floyd v. The CITY OF NEW ORLEANS et al.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

March 10, 1971.


Writ refused. On the facts found by the Court of Appeal, we cannot say that the result reached is incorrect.

BARHAM and TATE, JJ., are of the opinion the writ should be granted. The Court of Appeal has failed to set forth a satisfactory factual basis for finding abuse of discretion in the lower court award of damages. See C.C. Art. 1934(3). The appellate award appears to be violative of the principles enunciated in Gaspard v. LeMaire, 245 La. 239
