Ment Text

Louisiana SB308 mandates notice requirements for subcontractors on public works projects.

Louisiana SB308 amends the definition of "claimant" to include those with noncontractual relationships with owners or contractors on public works projects. It requires claimants without direct contracts to serve a "Notice to Contractor and Public Entity" within 45 days of furnishing labor, services, materials, or equipment. The notice must include details such as the claimant's name, the contractor's name, and a description of the work. Additionally, claimants must serve a "Monthly Notice of Nonpayment" within 75 days after the last day of the calendar month in which the unpaid work was done.
