In Re: Daphne Duval Meyer, applying for supervisory writs, 22nd
Judicial District Court, Parish of St. Tammany, No.
202414161.

BEFORE: LANIER, WOLFE, AND HESTER, JJ.

WRIT GRANTED WITH ORDER. The district court’s October 23,
2025 judgment denying the motion for summary judgment is vacated.
The plaintiff, Sarah Cook, on behalf of her minor child, B.C.,
individually and on behalf of her deceased father, Eric Cook,
raised an objection to the evidence submitted by the defendant,
Daphne Duvall Meyer, but the district court failed to rule on the
admissibility of such evidence in accordance with La. Code Civ. P.
art. 966(D) (2), which provides that the court shall specifically
state on the record or in writing whether it sustains or overrules
the objections raised. This matter is remanded to the district
court for a ruling on the defendant’s motion for summary judgment,
after a determination of any evidentiary issues, pursuant to La.
Code Civ. P. art. 966(D) (2).
