Narrative Opinion Summary
The Court of Appeal granted the application for supervisory and/or remedial writs concerning the case involving the Administrators of the Tulane Educational Fund. The court determined that while the "temporary transfer" rule does not inherently conflict with random allotment principles, the judicial economy favors keeping the suit in its originally assigned division following the recusal of the judge pro tempore. Consequently, the trial court's order from April 13, 2010, was vacated, and the case was returned to Division "E." Judges Guidry and Clark expressed their dissenting opinions, indicating they would have denied the application.
