Washington G.B. BRYAN

v.

The CITY OF NEW ORLEANS, et al.

No. 98-C-1263

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

January 20, 1999.

Reginald James Laurent, Spears & Spears, Slidell, Counsel for Applicant.

Glenn C. McGovern, New Orleans, Counsel for Respondent.

PER CURIAM.[*]

We granted certiorari in this case solely to determine whether the court of appeal erred in increasing the trial court's damage award. Upon a review of the record, we find that the court of appeal did so err. The trial court's award of damages is not clearly wrong, and we therefore reinstate that award.
