Whit E. PIERSON v. SUN ERECTION COMPANY, INC., et al.
    No. 54531.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 19, 1974.
   In re: Whit E. Pierson applying for Certiorari or Writ of Review to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit, Parish of Tangi-pahoa, 289 So.2d 273.

Writ denied. On the facts found by the Court of Appeal the result is correct.

TATE, DIXON and CALOGERO, JJ.,

are of the opinion that the writ should be granted. Tate, J., is of the additional opinion that this court should consider the issue raised of tort liability of the insurer for its failure to furnish medical treatment in violation of its independent obligation (by stipulation pour autrui) to the injured workman whether or not penalties are assessable.
