    ALLIANCE FOR AFFORDABLE ENERGY and Gary L. Groesch v. The COUNCIL OF the CITY OF NEW ORLEANS, Suzanne Haik Terrell, Oliver M. Thomas, Troy Carter, Roy Glapion, Ellen Hazeur-Thomas, Peggy Wilson and James Singleton.
    No. 96-CC-0700.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 25, 1996.
   PER CURIAM.

The City Council’s motion to lift this court’s stay order of March 21,1996 is granted in part. Considering that no court has yet ruled that Council Rule 45 violates the New Orleans Home Rule Charter, an issue which is set for oral argument in this court on May 20, 1996, the court recalls its order staying actions on professional service contracts under Council Rule 45, except that the portion of the March 21 order staying approval of utility consultant contracts remains in effect pending further orders of the court.

CALOGERO, C.J., and WATSON and JOHNSON, JJ.,

concur in part and dissent in part and would lift the stay order of March 21, 1996, fully. Unless and until this Court were to decide that Council Rule 45 violates the City’s Home Rule Charter, we would permit the enforcement of Council Rule 45.
