Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fourth Circuit.

September 28, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Trevor G. Bryan, Jefferson, Bryan & Gray, New Orleans, for plaintiff.

John H. Gniady, Ivor A. Trapolin, New Orleans, for defendant.

Before REDMANN, C.J., and KLEES and CIACCIO, JJ.


REDMANN, Chief Judge.

Plaintiff's complex medical claim is that defendant's improper dental x-raying caused him a calamitous bodily deterioration whose results include cataracts and the threat of general paralysis. He now appeals from a judgment for defendant on motion at the close of plaintiff's evidence. He argues error only in the denial of his trial-time motion for a continuance after he fired his then lawyer five days before trial.1
