DIXON, Justice.

We granted writs to consider whether, under R.S. 23:1331, a judgment awarding workmen's compensation benefits may be reopened after all benefits due under the judgment had been paid less than six months after the judgment was rendered. Plaintiff's rule to reopen was dismissed by the trial judge, who relied on Lacy v. Employers Mutual Liability Insurance Co. of Wisconsin, 233 La. 712, 98 So.2d 162
