1Opinion of the Court
Judge Joy Cossich Lobrano
| tin this medical malpractice case, rela-tors, Allen Jacobs, M.D., Brian Rodgers, M.D., and Brett Travis, M.D., seek supervisory review of the August 18, 2016 judgment of the district court, which denied the motions for summary judgment filed by relators. On the showing made, we find that there was not an opportunity for adequate discovery as provided under La. C.C.P. Art. 966(A)(3). Accordingly, we exercise our supervisory jurisdiction, grant the writ, and affirm the denial of summary judgment.
Respondents, Arthur A. Serpas and Patricia Serpas, brought claims against…
