TURBINE GENER ATION SERVICES, LLC, ET AL.
VS.
G.E. OIL & GAS, INC., ET AL.
On Writ of Certiorari to the Court of Appeal, Third Circuit, Parish of Lafayette
PER CURIAM
Considering the unique circumstances of this matter, including the unexpected
illness of plaintiff ’s expert and the imminent retirement of the judge who has long
presided over this suit, and acting in the interest of judicial efficiency, we find the
district court did not abuse its great discretion in extending the applicable expert
deadline while maintaining the September 22, 2025 trial date.
Accordingly, the writ is granted and made peremptory. The judgment of the
court of appeal is reversed insofar as it vacated the September 22, 2025 trial date and
remanded for the setting of a new trial date. T he judgment of the district court
maintaining the September 22, 2025 trial date is reinstated. The case is remanded to
the district court for further proceedings.
