1Opinion of the Court

TERRI F. LOVE, Judge.

|, This appeal arises from a motion to decertify a class of plaintiffs regarding damages allegedly suffered as a result of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The trial court denied Louisiana Citizens Property Insurance Corporation’s motion to decertify. We find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by denying the motion to decertify the class because there were no material changes in circumstance, which would warrant decertification at this stage in the proceedings, and affirm.
