HAROLD FILS
V.
STARR INDEMNITY & LIABILITY INS. CO., ET AL.
ON SUPERVISORY WRIT TO THE FIFTEENTH JUDICIAL
DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF LAFAYETTE
PER CURIAM
Without passing on the merits of the recusal issue, we find the subsequent
withdrawal of plaintiff’s counsel rendered the recusal motion moot. Accordingly, the
writ is granted. The judgment of the district court granting the motion to recuse is
vacated and set aside, and the case is remanded for further proceedings before the
judge to whom it was originally randomly allotted.
