Jordan III, Chairman Judge Ron Clark Judge Elizabeth Erny Foote Judge Melinda Harmon Judge Mary Ann Vial Lemmon Judge Michael P. Mills Judge Sul Ozerden Judge Sarah Vance Judge Stanwood R. Duval, Jr. Judge Lee H. Rosenthal iii FOREWORD In July 2011, the Fifth Circuit District Judges Associa- tion formed the Pattern Jury Instruction Committee (Civil) including Judges Lee Rosenthal, Ron Clark, Elizabeth Foote, Sul Ozerden, Michael P. Mills, Stanwood Duval, Mary Ann Lemmon, Sarah Vance, Melinda Harmon and Dan Jordan. The Committee was charged with reviewing the existing pattern instructions and updating them where necessary. After an initial review, the Committee determined that the time had come for a top-to-bottom examination for substantive accuracy. While many of the existing instruc- tions remained valid, a significant number no longer reflected current law. This is no reflection on prior commit- tees, which did an excellent job drafting prior patterns. The law is not stagnant; it was time to update. Accordingly, the 2014 edition of the Fifth Circuit Pattern Jury Instructions (Civil) will represent a substantial overhaul. The Committee approached this project with a consistent mantra: present instructions that are as balanced, accurate, and user friendly as possible. Given the breadth of that undertaking, outside assistance was essential. And in the end, nearly one hundred judges, attorneys, law professors, and law students helped draft, vet, edit, and proofread the final product.

Whether the Court of Appeals erred by failing to recognize that a District Attorney, who in his private law practice represented, and received hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees from, the liability insurer for the Parish (county) served by that District Attorney, both violated the Hobbs Act (18 U.S.C. § 1951, et seq.) and denied a criminal defendant substantive due process when that District Attorney used the authority of his public office to institute and maintain a misdemeanor criminal prosecution at the behest of that insurer and for the purpose of bolstering that insurer’s defense of a civil lawsuit for the tort of excessive force that was filed as a civil rights action by the misdemeanor defendant against the Sheriff of that Parish and others. 2. Whether the Court of Appeals erred in upholding the District Court’s dismissal of two civil rights suits against a District Attorney and a Sheriff, on the alleged ground that the plaintiff had failed to prosecute his civil suit when, in fact, that District Court had stayed the plaintiff’s suit on the defendants’ motion.

La. 5/21/2009) The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana recently denied class certification for a proposed class action involving victims of Hurricane Katrina. The proposed plaintiffs were residents of New Orleans who lived east of the Inner Harbor Navigational Canal (“INHC” or “Industrial Canal”). The plaintiffs allege that they suffered a variety of injuries when a barge owned by the Lafarge Company struck and caused the breach of the east wall of the Industrial Canal during Hurricane Katrina. The plaintiffs asserted that a total of 14,831 properties were affected by Lafarge’s negligence in mooring the barge which cause it to break lose during the storm, resulting in the breach and flood. In order to obtain certification of the class action, the plaintiffs had the burden to prove that because of common questions of law or fact, a class action was superior to other available methods of recovery.1 The plaintiffs were unable to meet this burden, therefore the class action was denied. The plaintiffs’ claims of damage by the barge were based on eyewitness encounters during the storm. One eyewitness claims to have heard a sound “like an explosion” and then saw “what appear[ed] to be a metal structure like a barge, only the tip of it” near the breach. The defendants in the proposed action argued that Hurricane Katrina resulted in multiple breaches producing multiple sources of flooding of the class areas.
