LANDRY v. JOHN E. GRAHAM & SONS, INC.

No. 87 CA 0372.

533 So.2d 975 (1988)

Jerry A. LANDRY and His Wife, Elizabeth Hebert Landry v. JOHN E. GRAHAM & SONS, INC. and Midland Insurance Company.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, First Circuit.

Writ Denied November 28, 1988.


PER CURIAM.

We granted a rehearing in this case to consider the appropriateness of using a motion for summary judgment to determine the issue of seaman's status under the Jones Act, 46 U.S.C.A.App. 688. In the original hearing, we affirmed the trial court's granting of partial summary judgment, finding the plaintiff to be a seaman. 525 So.2d 76. Upon reflection, we find the granting of summary judgment inappropriate under these circumstances.
