the order would have been dissolved, effectively ending the longstanding suit.
Smith s decision Monday to delay his ruling on Logan s argument came shortly after McChesney refused a settlement from the city in recent weeks in which LCG offered to give the statue to the UDC if the Daughters would just provide a location to move it to.
McChesney rejected the offer and fired her attorney J.M. Wooderson after he insisted she take the settlement, saying Monday in court that the offer didn t protect the monument to her desired standard.
What happened to the Mouton Statue?:Nobody knows.
The move was chided as a delay tactic by Logan and Assistant City-Parish Attorney Larry Marino, as well as attorney Jerome Moroux, who represents a group of citizens who launched the lawsuit to lift the 1980 court order in 2019.

The Public Service Commission on Wednesday was told the case is closed, spokesperson Colby Cook told local news outlets. The staff recommended no action on allegations made by Lafayette Mayor-President Joel Robideaux in December 2019.
