COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT

M. A. R. S. CLEANING SERVICES, NO. 2019 CW 0963
LLC

VERSUS

TERREBONNE PARISH DEC 0 6 2019
CONSOLIDATED GOVERNMENT

In Re: M. A. R. S. Cleaning Services, LLC, applying for
supervisory writs, 32nd Judicial District Court,

Parish of Terrebonne, No. 184236.

BEFORE: McCLENDON, WELCH, AND HOLDRIDGE, JJ.

WRIT GRANTED. The trial court' s June 11, 2019 judgment

denying the motion to dismiss without prejudice filed by
relator, M. A. R. S. Cleaning Services, LLC, is reversed. The
defendant, Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government, failed to

show that it would be deprived of a substantive right or defense
if this matter was dismissed without prejudice. We find the
trial court abused its discretion in denying reiator' s motion.

Therefore, M. A. R. S. Cleaning Services, LLC' s motion to dismiss
without prejudice is granted, and its claims against Terrebonne

Parish Consolidated Government are dismissed without prejudice.
