Public Records Law and Statewide Resources

Louisiana public records law at RS 44:31 gives any person of majority age the right to inspect public records. The clerk cannot deny access without proving a legal exemption. RS 44:3 restricts active case records until final judgment in the 28th Judicial District Court. RS 44:32 allows the clerk to charge reasonable copy fees. Expungement under RS 44:9 can remove eligible records from public view, but most felony convictions are not expungeable in Louisiana.

For mail requests, send a written request to the LaSalle Parish Clerk of Court in Jena. Include the subject's full name, date of birth, any aliases, and the date range.

State background checks cost $26, or $39.25 with FBI records. Federal cases go through the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, searchable via PACER.
