Rule Text

Plain-English Summary (for reference only — not a substitute for the rule text above)

This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.

This rule no longer exists in its original spot. Louisiana lawmakers moved it in 2024 through Act 501, and it now lives in the state's revised statutes at R.S. 44:119.

If you're looking for the actual content of this rule, you'll need to check R.S. 44:119 instead of the Code of Civil Procedure. Sometimes when a law gets moved like this, its subject matter shifts too. R.S. 44:119 deals with public records law, so this provision likely relates to that topic rather than general civil procedure.

If you're working on a legal matter and see a reference to old Rule 258, treat it as outdated. Courts and attorneys would cite the new location instead. When in doubt, check the current statute directly or ask someone familiar with recent changes to Louisiana law to confirm what the provision says now.
