Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 9, § 315.41. Notice of child support delinquency; suspension of license

Current as of January 01, 2023 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

A. The department may send by certified mail, return receipt requested, a notice of child support delinquency to an obligor who is not in compliance with an order of support informing the obligor of the department's intention to submit his name to the licensing authority for suspension of his license. If an obligor holds multiple licenses, the department may issue a single notice of its intention to submit multiple suspensions. When the obligor has one or more motor vehicles, personal watercraft, motorboats, sailboats, all-terrain vehicles or trailers registered in his name, the notice shall inform the obligor of the department's intention to suspend the registration of all of them as well. A non-obligor spouse who uses any such vehicle may so inform the department by notarized affidavit, and thereby retain the use of that vehicle and its license.

B. A notice of child support delinquency shall include all of the following:

(1) A summary of the obligor's right to file a written objection to the suspension of his license, including the time within which such objection must be filed and the address where the objection must be filed.

(2) A brief description of the administrative hearing and location of such hearing if the obligor timely files a written objection.

(3) The municipal address and telephone number of the department that issued the notice of child support delinquency.

(4) The docket number and court which issued the order of support.

(5) A statement of the amount of past-due support.

(6) A brief summary of what the obligor must do to come into compliance or to forestall the suspension.
