DARNELLE BORDELON ARCENEAUX

BRYAN DAVID ARCENEAUX
C/W
DARNELLE BORDELON ARCENEAUX
VS.
BRYAN DAVID ARCENEAUX
On Writ of Certiorari to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit, Parish of Lafourche
PER CURIAM
Writ granted. Considering the well-settled rule that a trial court’s factual
findings regarding the nature of property as being either community or separate are
subject to a manifest error/clearly wrong standard of review, we find no manifest
error in the trial court’s judgment. We therefore vacate the judgment of the court of
appeal and reinstate the trial court’s judgment. See Cosman v. Cosman, 22-0694, p.
5 (La. App. 1 Cir. 1/10/23), 360 So. 3d 892, 896, writ denied, 23-00299 (La. 5/2/23),
359 So. 3d 1272.
VACATED; TRIAL COURT JUDGMENT REINSTATED.
