Bordelon v. Dehnert
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided March 19, 2001
787 So. 2d 995; 2001 La. LEXIS 927 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Bordelon v. Dehnert

Opinion of the Court

In re Bordelon, Leon Nicholas; — Plaintiff; Applying for Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs, Parish of Ascension, 23rd Judicial District Court Div. C, No. 64,639; to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit, No. 99 CW 2625-R.

Denied. Result is correct. Because one of the parties remains domiciled in the state which issued the child support judgment, that state retains continuing exclusive jurisdiction and is the only state which can modify its order. See La. Ch.Code art. 1306.11; see also Jurado v. Brashear, 00-C-1306 (La.3/19/01), 782 So.2d 575.
