HB 1148 Louisiana House · 2026 Regular Session

JUDGES: Provides relative to the judiciary commission's authority over the deliberative process of judges

This bill modifies the powers of Louisiana's judiciary commission by clarifying that it cannot review judges' decisions made during their deliberative process or discretionary determinations. It also states that any findings by the commission or supreme court about a judge's deliberative process cannot be used as proof of prior misconduct. The changes apply to both past and future cases, though the bill has only been referred to a committee and has not yet been voted on.
