In Re: SABIC Petrochemicals Holding US, Inc., applying for
supervisory writs, 18th Judicial District Court, Parish
of Iberville, No. 76, 976

BEFORE: HIGGINBOTHAM, PENZATO, AND LANIER, JJ.

WRIT NOT CONSIDERED IN PART, GRANTED IN PART. As to the
award of monetary sanctions, this writ application is not

considered as no judgment has been issued awarding such

sanctions. The trial court' s October 31, 2019 ruling which

disqualified James Wilkerson from testifying as a witness in a

future trial herein is reversed. Since a mistrial was granted

herein, and thus, the improper contact remedied, the trial court

erred in disqualifying Mr. Wilkerson from testifying at a future
trial, which would not involve the jurors with whom he
engaged.
