APPLICATION FOR PERMISSION TO TAKE BAR EXAMINATION GRANTED WITH ORDER:

2007-OB-1484 IN RE: JOHN MURRAY GAVIN
TRAYLOR, J., would deny.
WEIMER, J., would deny.

WRIT APPLICATION DENIED; STAY DENIED:

2007-CC-1492 THERESA TALBOT v. RITA GILL AND ROBERT GILL (Parish of Jefferson)
CALOGERO, C.J., concurs in the denial of the writ application and assigns reasons. While the court of appeal may have properly vacated the district court's judgment, I believe the court of appeal acted prematurely in opining that the language of the lease contemplates only a one-time renewal. The issue of the lease renewal is better left for a determination by the court hearing the eviction proceedings.
