Bowers v. Poindexter

WALTZER, Judge.

The defendant in this action appeals two judgments from the Civil District Court, one from Judge Ganucheau, the other from Judge Giarrusso. One judgment orders the sequestration of funds, which were for the payment of legal fees for the settlement of a federal case known as Sandra Allen v. Harry Lee, allegedly handled in part by the plaintiff while a partner in the law firm with the defendant. The other judgment amended a prior judgment which had denied equitable relief to the plaintiff, thereby allowing the sequestration ordered by Judge Ganucheau.
