Outcome
Appellate court reversed the trial court's denial of the defendants' peremptory exceptions and dismissed the plaintiffs' bystander claims under Louisiana Civil Code Article 2315.6, finding that the plaintiffs failed to adequately allege the temporal proximity requirement because they did not witness the injury-causing event or its immediate aftermath but only arrived to participate in search and recovery efforts.
