Ex-Parte Communication

Patrons with Disabilities

Patrons with Disabilities

  Pursuant to the Code of Judicial Conduct, Canon 3(A)(6), “the judge shall not permit private or ex-parte interviews, arguments, or communications designed to influence his or her judicial action in any case, either civil or criminal.” 

 

While we wish to serve everyone, there are limitations on activities judges can undertake. A district judge cannot offer legal advice. Furthermore, judges are generally prohibited from discussing legal proceedings with parties, attorneys or other interested persons outside of the courtroom. Judge Willett is interested in hearing what each party has to say, but cannot do so outside the presence of the other party(ies). Improper communication with Judge Willett or his staff will likely result in him being recused from hearing the matter.

 For the Court to take any action, appropriate pleadings must be filed with the Clerk of Court.

FINS

Louisiana Protective Order Registry

 The Families in Need of Services program  became effective in all courts having juvenile jurisdiction on July 1, 1994, as Title VII of the Louisiana Children’s Code.  This title of the  Children’s Code represents a substantial consolidation of former proceedings known under the Code of Juvenile Procedure as Children in  Need of Supervision (CINS) and Parents in Need of Supervision (PINS).   The Families in Need of Services process is designed to permit the  juvenile court to return to it’s original role of coordinating community  resources to assist and reinforce the family in an effort to prevent  delinquency and family disintegration. FINS goals are to reduce formal  juvenile court involvement while generating appropriate community  services to benefit the child and improve family relations.
