IN RE ANN RUTH BAEHR
APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT,
PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE COMMISSIONER
PATRICIA M. JOYCE, NUMBER 811-196
Panel composed of Judges Marc E. Johnson,
John J. Molaison, Jr., and June B. Darensburg
WRIT GRANTED
After consideration of the juvenile court’s August 18, 2022 reply to
this Court’s Order of August 17, 2022, concerning its continuing jurisdiction under
La. Ch.C. art. 309, it is our determination that Jefferson Parish Juvenile Court is
the proper venue for the proceedings regarding custody at this time. A judgment
rendered by a court which has no jurisdiction over the subject matter of the action
or proceeding is void. La. C.C.P. art. 3. Accordingly, all district court judgments
at issue pertaining to custody in case 811-196, pending in Division “O”, are hereby
vacated, and the juvenile court’s previous transfer of custody order dated
December 14, 2020, is reinstated pending further proceedings. Because we have
vacated the district court’s rulings, our stay of the judgments is no longer in effect.
Gretna, Louisiana, this 19th day of August, 2022.
