COLE, Justice.

This appeal is from a judgment of the Nineteenth Judicial District Court reversing an order of the Louisiana Public Service Commission (Commission) granting a certificate of public convenience and necessity. The only issue presented is whether the applicant sustained his required burden of proof under La.R.S. 45:1503(C). The district court held the applicant did not satisfy the statutory burden. We affirm.
