Address Issue Headed to LA Supremes

The Times-Picayune reports that State Senator Lynn Dean will appeal the Louisiana 4th Circuit Court of Appeal's decision that he cannot run for an at-large council seat in St. Bernard Parish because he is not a resident of the parish. At issue is Dean's 101 Dean Drive mailing address that is alleged to simultaneously refer to Deans' "spacious house 10 feet inside Plaquemines' boundary and the apartment connected to his boat manufacturing plant 40 feet inside St. Bernard, where he claims his domicile for voting purposes." Dean has always voted in St. Bernard parish.
