Louisiana Court of Appeal

1Opinion of the CourtWicker, J.
In this medical malpractice action, plaintiffs, Jody Taylor, Gwendolyn Bourgeois, and Donald Foster, individually, and on behalf of their deceased mother, Rita Foster, appeal the trial court's August 15, 2017 judgment sustaining an exception of prescription in favor of defendants, Charles O. Olisa, M.D. and Smita S. Pechitty, M.D., and dismissing, with prejudice, only those claims plaintiffs made against them for survival damages. Because we find the judgment at issue is not a final, appealable judgment, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
