BLANCHET, DISTRICT JUDGE ********** SHARON DARVILLE WILSON JUDGE ********** Court composed of Shannon J. Gremillion, Candyce G. Perret, and Sharon Darville Wilson, Judges. AFFIRMED. Kay Karré Gautreaux Law Office of Kay Karré Gautreaux 405 West Convent Street Lafayette, Louisiana 70501 (337) 232-7747 COUNSEL FOR INTERVENOR/APPELLEE: Tammy Louise Lyons Daniel M. Landry, II Christian B. Landry The Landry Law Firm Post Office Box 3784 Lafayette, Louisiana 70502 (337) 237-7135 COUNSEL FOR DEFENDANT/APPELLANT: Angelica Harmon WILSON, Judge. Angelica Harmon (Harmon) seeks to regain custody of her minor daughter, A.L.S.,1 from A.L.S.’s paternal grandmother, Tammy Louise Lyons (Lyons). The trial court issued two judgments on June 23, 2021. The first awarded joint custody of A.L.S. to Harmon and Lyons. Neither Harmon nor Lyons was named as domiciliary parent. The second judgment issued a joint custody implementation plan, which provided that beginning with the 2021-2022 school year, Harmon and Lyons would share custody of A.L.S. on an alternating seven-day basis with the exchange day being Friday. Harmon filed two separate appeals with respect to the two judgments; therefore, this matter is a companion case to Smith v. Lyons, 21772 (La.App. 3 Cir. ___/___/22), ___ So.3d ___, which was rendered by this court on this same day. For the reasons given in that opinion, we affirm both of the trial court’s judgments in their entirety. AFFIRMED. 1 We use the initials of the minor to protect her identity. Uniform Rules—Courts of Appeal, Rule 5–2.
