Hollis and Naomi PAYTON v. McDERMOTT, INC., et al.
    No. 91-CC-0365.
    
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    March 28, 1991.
   In re McDermott Inc.; — Defendant(s); Applying for Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs; Parish of Orleans Civil District Court Div. “D” Number 89-19440; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, Number 90CA-2190.

Denied.

LEMMON, Justice,

concurring.

The plaintiff's deposition has already been taken in the present case. Otherwise, I would grant the application to decide whether to defer, until after the defendant has had an opportunity to take the plaintiffs deposition, discovery of photographs and videotapes taken of plaintiff by the defendant for impeachment purposes.

MARCUS and COLE, JJ., concur for reasons assigned by LEMMON, J.

CALOGERO, C.J., would grant the writ.

DENNIS, J.,

would grant. Although the result appears to be correct, this Court should consider the question and write a comprehensive opinion.
