ON APPLICATION FOR REHEARING
Panel composed of Fredericka Homberg Wicker, John J. Molaison, Jr., and Scott U.Schlegel
WICKER, J.
Relator, Casey Landry, seeks reconsideration of this Court's January 5, 2024 ruling, dismissing her writ application as untimely. Uniform Rules-Courts of Appeal, Rule (URCA) 2-18.7 provides as follows:
2-18.7. When Rehearing Will Be Considered
An application for rehearing will be considered in cases where the court has:
(A) Granted a writ application on the merits;
(B) Dismissed an appeal; or
(C) Ruled on the merits of an appeal.
Because relator's writ application was dismissed, not granted, we find that she is not entitled to a rehearing.
However, because relator contends that her writ application was untimely due to issues caused by this Court's e-filing system, "through no fault of her own," we point out that the e-filing system was working properly on December 4, 2023, as several pleadings and other documents were successfully e-filed in other cases without issue.
