1980 La. LEXIS 8305
Dennis
Blanchard v. Brown
Opinion of the Court
In re James H. Brown, Secretary of State for the State of Louisiana, applying for Certiorari, or writ of review, to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit. Parish of East Baton Rouge. No. 13,905.
Denied.
Concurring Opinion
would grant. Act 588 of 1977, finally passed on July 10, 1977, contains provisions contrary to and irreconcilable with those of Act 523, which received final passage on July 9, 1977. The former law was, in part, impliedly repealed by the later expression of the legislative will. C.C. Arts. 1, 23. The lower court decisions reaching the opposite result are clearly incorrect.
