Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Tit. III, Art. 732. Unemancipated minor

A. An unemancipated minor has no procedural capacity to be sued.

B. Any person having parental authority over an unemancipated minor is a proper defendant in an action to enforce an obligation against the minor.

C. During tutorship, the tutor is the proper defendant in an action to enforce an obligation against the unemancipated minor. If a minor has no tutor, the action may be brought against the minor, but the court shall appoint an attorney to represent him until a tutor is appointed for the minor.

D. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph A, B, or C of this Article, an attorney appointed by the court having jurisdiction over an unemancipated minor who is in the legal custody of the Department of Children and Family Services is the proper defendant in an action to enforce an obligation against an unemancipated minor. Upon application of the tutor or person having parental authority who would otherwise be the proper defendant to be sued pursuant to Paragraph B or C of this Article, the court shall appoint or substitute as the proper defendant the best qualified among the tutor, a person having parental authority, or the appointed attorney.
