Christopher M. Jones v. Lisa C. Jones, Viola Chatelain, Curtis Chatelain, Donna Saacks, and Christina Deleon

Summary

The Louisiana Court of Appeal, First Circuit declined to consider a supervisory writ application challenging an interlocutory judgment because it appeared to be filed outside the applicable 30-day period. The court stated that any new application must include specified notices and documentation, comply with the appellate rules, and be filed by January 26, 2026.

Holdings

1. A supervisory writ application challenging an interlocutory judgment must be filed within 30 days of notice of the judgment; because this application was filed on October 14, 2025, after the July 15, 2025 judgment, the court did not consider the writ application as apparently untimely.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the supervisory writ application challenging the trial court's interlocutory judgment was timely filed under the Uniform Rules of Louisiana Courts of Appeal.
