Specialized Loan Servicing, L.L.C. v. January
Supreme Court of Louisiana
1Opinion of the CourtVictory, J.
I,We granted this writ application to resolve a split in the courts of appeal regarding whether the fourth category of the doctrine of contra non valentem, i.e., the discovery rule, is applicable to suspend prescription of a conversion claim against a payor under La. R.S. 10:3^120(f). After reviewing the record and the applicable law, we find that the discovery rule cannot suspend the one-year prescriptive period of La. R.S. 10:3-420(f). Therefore, we affirm the judgment of the court of appeal.
