SHAUNTEL WILLIAMS
VERSUS
KENTER, LLC, ET AL.

FILED: 10/21/22

On application of Kenter, LLC, for Supervisory Writ in No. 18-08106 on the
docket of the Office of Workers' Compensation – District #3, Parish of Calcasieu,
Honorable Jonathan Brown.

Counsel for:
Eric J. Waltner Kenter, LLC

Counsel for:
Shauntel Williams Shauntel Williams

Lake Charles, Louisiana, on March 14, 2023.

WRIT GRANTED AND MADE PEREMPTORY. We find that the office of
workers' compensation court legally erred in its interpretation and application of
La. Admin. Code Title 40, Pt. I, § 5705. The 30-day period for seeking
reinstatement under La. Admin. Code Title 40, Pt. I, § 5705(C) begins to run the
day after the clerk has mailed the notice of the signing of the dismissal judgment.
Accordingly, we reverse and set aside the court's ruling.
