1989In Whitnell v. Menville, 540 So.2d 304, 309 (La.1989) the Supreme Court approved the holding in Kerr, supra, when it stated “[wjhile it is not necessary to allow plaintiff leave to amend if he cannot even point out possible grounds sufficient to overcome the exception ... a court may allow time to amend if the new allegations raise the possibility that the claim is not prescribed.” Accordingly, we find no error in the trial judge’s sustaining the exception of prescription without granting leave to amend.
