James ARCHER, Plaintiff-Appellant,

v.

TUDOR CONSTRUCTION CO., Defendant-Appellee.

No. 94-850.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

February 15, 1995.

Earl Arthur Maxwell, New Orleans, for James Archer.

Samuel Newman Poole, Jr., Alexandria, for Tudor Const. Co.

Before KNOLL, SAUNDERS and AMY, JJ.

KNOLL, Judge.

The sole issue on appeal is whether the Office of Worker's Compensation abused its discretion by dismissing the plaintiff's case with prejudice pursuant to LSA-C.C.P. Art. 1672(A) because the plaintiff failed to appear on the day set for trial. We affirm.
