State Immunity From Prescription Does Not Benefit Parish School Board
Article 12, § 13 of the Louisiana Constitution provides that prescription does not run against the state in any civil matter unless otherwise provided in the Constitution or expressly by law. Today, in Terrebonne Parish School Board v. Southdown, Inc., the First Circuit holds that this constitutional provision does not apply to a parish school board.
