anted. The district court did not abuse its discretion in excluding the
evidence at issue on the ground its probative value was substantially outweighed by
its prejudicial effect. See La. Code Evid. art. 403.
Accordingly, the judgment of the court of appeal is reversed, and the judgment
of the district court is reinstated. The case is remanded to the district court for further
proceedings.
