LLC, and Jonathan Zachary, applying for supervisory
writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East
Baton Rouge, No. 657026 c/ w 658372.
BEFORE: HIGGINBOTHAM, PENZATO, LANIER, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED. We find that the trial court erred in
denying the motion for vocational examination solely for the
reason that a Rule 10. 1 Conference was not held. Further,
defendants have shown that plaintiff' s physical and mental
condition is in controversy, that good cause exists for a
vocational examination, and plaintiff has notified defendants of
his intent to use a vocational rehabilitation expert.
