Art. 1529 Procedure

Here's a plain English summary of this rule:

When a case falls under this chapter, the court follows the same steps and process laid out in Louisiana's criminal procedure rules. In other words, this isn't a separate or special set of steps just for this situation. The court uses the same criminal court procedures that apply in other criminal cases.

For anyone involved in a case like this, it means you can expect the process to work much like a typical criminal case in Louisiana. The same rules for things like hearings, motions, and other court procedures will apply here too.
