COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT
RUDOLPH DEMPSEY, JR., NO. 2020 CW 0703
ELIZABETH DEMPSEY GOODLOW,
AND MILLIE HAMILTON HARRIS
VERSUS
AMOS HAMILTON, JR. AUGUST 11, 2020
In Re: Amos Hamilton, applying for supervisory writs, 23rd
Judicial District Court, Parish of Ascension, No.
96334.
BEFORE: WHIPPLE, C. J., GUIDRY AND WOLFE, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED IN PART; WRIT DENIED IN PART; STAY DENIED. We
grant the writ application and reverse the trial court' s July 6,
2020 judgment to the extent it seeks to limit the issues that
relator Amos Hamilton can appeal, specifically including, but
not limited to, the effect, if any, of the stipulations entered
on November 26, 2019 and March 9, 2020. Relator may assign as
error and brief all issues he deems are properly before the
court on appeal. See La. Code Civ. P. art. 2164. Respondents
can address these issues in their appellee brief and/ or file any
motions they deem appropriate in response. However, we deny the
writ application to the extent relator seeks a reduction in the
suspensive appeal bond. We conclude that the trial court did
not abuse its discretion in setting the amount of the suspensive
appeal bond at $ 46, 387. 92.
