Term: Keeping a Louisiana commission active
Your $50,000 bond is renewed every five years, and a lapsed bond suspends your commission (R.S. 35:71). An annual report is due each year around your commission anniversary; the Notary Division mails a notice within 60 days before it, and not filing leads to suspension.

Serving papers in Louisiana
Before you serve papers in Louisiana
Process server rules vary by state, and sometimes by county or city. Some places license or register process servers, some require a court appointment, and some have no separate requirement. You must meet Louisiana's rules for any papers you serve, and we ask about it when you apply. Check Louisiana's court rules and its court self-help pages for current requirements. We don't give legal advice.
One example from the official pages: in small claims cases (Small claims division of the city court (La. R.S. 13:5202)), service is described like this: “Citation by certified mail counts as personal service; if that fails, the marshal usually serves (Shreveport City Court).” Other civil cases follow their own rules.
