LEMMON, Judge,
concurring.
The court of appeal improperly referred to the issue as one of subject matter jurisdiction. La.Code Civ.Proc. art. 2811 is a rule of venue. See La.Code Civ.Proc. art. 44, classifying Article 2811 as a rule of nonwaivable venue. See also In re Howard Marshall Trust, 97-1718 (La.3/4/98), — So.2d -, 1998 WL 94426 (Lemmon, J., Concurring). Since venue in Orleans Parish was improper, the case should have been transferred to Jefferson Parish. La.Code Civ.Proc. art. 121.
