Brittanie Square v. Terrance Paynes

STATE OF LOUISIANA

COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT

BRITTANIE SQUARE NO. 2022 CW 0385

VERSUS

TERRANCE PAYNES JULY 18, 2022

In Re: Brittanie Square, applying for supervisory writs,

Family Court in and for the Parish of East Baton
Rouge, No. 228294.

BEFORE: HOLDRIDGE, PENZATO, AND LANIER, JJ.

WRIT GRANTED WITH ORDER. The family court' s March 8, 2022
order denying the motion to proceed in forma pauperis filed by
Brittanie Square is vacated. It appears that mover, Brittanie
Square, and her counsel did not receive any notice of the

hearing on the motion held on March 8, 2022. Furthermore, the

family court failed to give written reasons explaining why the
presumption that the mover is entitled to proceed in forma
pauperis was rebutted. See La. Code Civ. P. art. 5183( B)( 2).
This matter is remanded to the family court for further
proceedings.
