Text
§31. Costs of court not charged against state or parish health officers
The Louisiana Department of Health, the parish health units, the state
health officer, and the parish health officers are exempt from the payment of
all costs of court and stenographers' fees in any suit in which any one of them
is a party. However, in such a case, costs may be charged against any party,
other than one of the above, cast in judgment, as though the above had not
been exempt and had actually paid costs.
