JOHNSON, J.

Appellee/Plaintiff, Barrios Investments, LLC (“Barrios Investments”), has

filed an application for rehearing in this matter concerning the notice of intent to

obtain a default judgment analysis in our original opinion rendered on December

20, 2023. This Court found that, pursuant to La. C.C.P. art. 1702(A)(4), Barrios

Investments was required to send Appellant/Defendant, Linh Tran, notice that it

intended to obtain a default judgment through regular mail. Upon review, we find

merit to Barrios Investments’ application for rehearing. We agree that we

concluded, in error, that Barrios Investments was required to comply with La.

C.C.P. art. 1702(A)(4) for this action, and we have corrected the appropriate

portions of the analysis in the opinion.

Accordingly, we grant the rehearing application for the reasons stated in the

analysis of the corrected opinion rendered on March 20, 2024.
