1Opinion of the Court

Judge Daniel L. Dysart

11 Gerald Hatcher, an inmate at the Avo-yelles Correctional Center, appearing herein pro se, appeals the trial court’s judgment sustaining a dilatory exception of unauthorized use of a summary proceeding and dismissing his petition for a writ of mandamus. As discussed more fully herein, the trial court correctly dismissed the writ of mandamus filed against the defendant, the coroner for Orleans Parish, Dr. Jeffrey Rouse, M.D. We, therefore, affirm the trial court’s judgment.
