Zoe Olivia Fleming , Calvin A. Flemming, III , Attorneys at Law, Gretna, Louisiana, for Defendant/Appellee, John M. Farrell.

Panel composed of Judges SUSAN M. CHEHARDY, JUDE G. GRAVOIS, and HANS J. LILJEBERG.


SUSAN M. CHEHARDY, Chief Judge.

This is a divorce proceeding. The issue on appeal is whether a second petition for divorce may be filed under the same case number as an earlier-filed petition for divorce, when the parties reconciled before judgment was rendered on the first petition. We affirm the trial court's ruling that after reconciliation, the original action is extinguished, and a subsequent petition for divorce must be filed as a new proceeding.
