CITY OF NEW ORLEANS, et al v. UNITED GAS PIPE LINE COMPANY. GULF STATES UTILITIES COMPANY v. UNITED GAS PIPE LINE COMPANY. LOUISIANA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY v. UNITED GAS PIPE LINE COMPANY and Pennzoil Company.
    No. 81-C-3104.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    Dec. 22, 1981.
   In re: United Gas Pipe Line Company applying for writ of review Civil District Court, Parish of Orleans, Nos. 575-544, 577-399, 579-040.

The motion to recuse is denied on the merits. The application is denied.

BLANCHE, J.,

would order the City of New Orleans, the class action of the rate payers and the Public Service Commission out of the suit as the contract action is none of their business until the plaintiffs, utility companies, recover in their suit against defendant.

LEMMON, J.,

would order a 90-day continuance, which was warranted when the filing of the amended pleadings was allowed.
