In Re: Total Wireline Services, Inc. and Perry F. Perrin;

Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, applying for

supervisory writs, 32nd Judicial District Court,
Parish of Terrebonne, No. 175, 659.

BEFORE: MCDONALD, THERIOT, AND CHUTZ, JJ.

WRIT GRANTED. The district court' s judgment of
May 10,
2019, denying defendants/ relators, Total Wireline Services, Inc.
and Perry F. Perrin' s Motion for Summary Judgment, and Liberty
Mutual Insurance Company' s Motion for Summary Judgment, is

leaking onto the water following the boat' s submersion. See
Sanders v. Posi- Seal International, 93- 1007 ( La. App. 1st Cir.
4/ 8/ 94), 635 So. 2d 760 & Doucet v. Superior Gauging Services,
Inc., 2018- 861 ( La. App. 3d Cir. 4/ 17/ 19), 268 So. 3d 1082.
Accordingly, judgment is entered in favor of Total wireline
Services, Inc. and Perry F. Perrin, their motion for
granting
summary judgment, and Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, granting
its motion for summary judgment.
