Local Rule LAR64.3: Movement of Vessels Under Seizure
W.D. La. — Civil rule
LAR64.3 Movement of Vessels Under Seizure Without a separate order in each individual case, the marshal is authorized to move the vessels under seizure by him within the district in such a manner and at such times as he, acting as a prudent administrator, finds to be necessary to their proper safeguarding and preservation while under seizure. Further, and without an order of court, he is authorized to permit the moving of vessels anywhere within the area of the district when the party at whose instance the vessel is detained and its owner, or the owner's attorney, expressly authorizes in writing such a movement and agrees in writing to hold the marshal and all his deputies harmless from any and all liability as a result of any such move.
