Higginbotham and Wolfe, JJ., dissent and would grant the
writ. The petition for
continuing tutorship was filed prior to
T. R. B. reaching the age of eighteen. La. Civ. Code art. 355
provides
that the parents may file such a petition when a person
above the age of fifteen meets the requirements stated therein,
thereby referencing the time of filing the petition. See also
