    Wayne SIMS v. MARCO EQUIPMENT RENTALS, INC.
    No. 14702.
    Court of Appeal of Louisiana, First Circuit.
    March 2, 1982.
    Robert H. Morrison, III, Denham Springs, for plaintiff.
    John P. Calmes, Jr., Baton Rouge, for defendant.
    Before COVINGTON, COLE and WATKINS, JJ.
   WATKINS, Judge.

This appeal was fixed on the February 1982 Docket and all attorneys of record were notified. At the time scheduled for argument, the appellant was not present or represented, nor had any brief been filed on behalf of appellant, nor had any motion been filed for continuance.

On authority of Rule VII, Section 5(b), this Court ex proprio motu, considers this appeal as abandoned; therefore, it is ordered that this appeal be dismissed with prejudice.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
