Have you given up on collecting past-due Child Support? Louisiana law (C.C. Art. 3501.1) allows you to petition the Court to convert any past-due support less than 10 years old into an Executory (lump sum) Judgment. An Executory Judgment gives you more leverage to collect your support. If you are owed a substantial amount of past-due Child Support, contact me to discuss possible methods we can utilize to collect your support.

Considering filing a child custody or support action in the new year?

Custody and support decrees are never permanent in that they can always be changed, if circumstances justify a change. As the Louisiana 5th Circuit Court of Appeal stated in Duhe v. O’Donnell, child custody arrangements are “not forever binding and may be modified and/or vacated by the Court. Child custody and child support decrees are never final and are always subject to modification.”

Initial phone consultations available at no charge – (225) 346-1999.

GIVE YOUR OPINION ON THIS OPINION!

In a split (4 to 3) decision, the Louisiana Supreme Court (LASC) recently held that the state 4th Circuit Court of Appeal's affirmation of the trial judge's sentence of 30 years for a 72 year old woman's drug offense conviction is unconstitutional and amounts to "purposeful imposition of pain and suffering". At first glance, most of us might agree but as often is the case, the devil is in the details. After a reading of the decision and the woman's history, where do you fall on this case?

You can read a brief summation of the LASC's decision here:

For all of the details of the case and to get the full case history, read the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals decision here:

Who do you agree with, the LASC or the 4th Circuit and the trial judge? It should be noted that three justices of the LASC wrote dissenting opinions.
