HB1006

Extends the time delay for filing of oppositions to motions for summary judgment

Chamber Passed·4/15/26

Louisiana HB1006 shortens the time delay for filing oppositions to motions for summary judgment.

Louisiana HB1006 amends the Code of Civil Procedure to change the time delay for filing oppositions to motions for summary judgment. Currently, oppositions must be filed at least 15 days before the hearing. The bill reduces this period to 10 days. This change affects parties involved in civil litigation in Louisiana, potentially expediting the summary judgment process.
