n Writ of Certiorari to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, Parish of Orleans
Civil
PER CURIAM
A
lthough relator’s June 2, 2022 motion for suspensive appeal was premature,
any defect as to timeliness in the appeal was cured when the district court signed the
written judgment on July 5, 2022. See Overmier v. Traylor, 475 So.2d 1094, 1094–
95 (La. 1985 ) (explaining that “once the final judgment has been signed, any
previously existing defect has been cured, and there is no useful purpose in
dismissing the otherwise valid appeal.”).
Accordingly, the writ is granted. The judgment of the court of appeal is
reversed, and relator’s suspensive appeal is reinstated.
