La. R. Dist. Ct. 14.4

As amended through May 31, 2024
Rule 14.4 - Transfer When a Bond Reduction or Preliminary Hearing is Pending

If, after the filing and fixing of a date and time for a bond reduction or preliminary hearing, it is discovered that the case has been improperly or inappropriately allotted and the case is to be transferred to another division, the division transferring the case shall transfer it, but only after the designated date and time of the bond reduction or preliminary examination hearing. This Rule does not prevent a judge from transferring pending motions to the proper division when a motion is improperly or inappropriately scheduled for hearing by a division for the purposes of forum shopping or when the receiving division agrees or desires to hear the motions.
