Art. 1701 Repealed by Acts 2003, No. 609, §3

This part of the law no longer exists. Louisiana lawmakers removed it back in 2003 when they passed Act 609. Since it was taken out, it has no legal effect and does not apply to anyone.

If you're looking into a case or a legal question and you come across a reference to this section, you'll need to check current law instead. The rules that apply today are found elsewhere in the Children's Code, since this one was officially cancelled.
