Surtain v. Carriere

^PLOTKIN, J.,

dissenting with written reasons.

For the reasons stated in my strong dissent in Hebard v. Dillion, 97-0221 (La.App. 4 Cir. 9/3/97), 699 So.2d 497, I respectfully dissent from the majority decision reversing the trial court judgment in this case. I believe that LSA-R.S. 22:1220 applies to the RTA, and that penalties should be assessed against RTA under that statute.
