ALLAIN v. FIRST GUAR. BANK

No. CA 90 0020.

577 So.2d 1109 (1991)

Reid ALLAIN v. FIRST GUARANTY BANK.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, First Circuit.

March 28, 1991.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

J. Francois Allain New Orleans, John V. Seago, Maurice LeGardeur, Jr., Covington, for plaintiff-appellant.

Alton Lewis, Hammond, for defendant-appellee.

Before EDWARDS, WATKINS and LeBLANC, JJ.


EDWARDS, Judge.

Plaintiffs, Reid and Vicki Allain, filed this suit seeking damages for the wrongful seizure of their property. This action is preceded by almost seventeen years of protracted litigation following the seizure of the Allains' property via an executory proceeding initiated by First Guaranty Bank in 1974. Finding that this suit was untimely filed, we reverse the trial court's ruling on the issue of prescription.
