Early voting in the constitutional amendment election begins Saturday, and there’s a lot to unpack. PAR President Steven Procopio says Amendment 1 grants the Louisiana Supreme Court the authority to discipline out-of-state lawyers and permits the legislature to establish specialty courts.
Cut 3 (14) “…state-wide court.”
Amendment 2, of course, is the rewrite of Article 7 of the State Constitution. Amendment 3 lets the legislature decide which crimes juveniles can be tried for as adults, removing the current constitutional list; and Amendment 4 would change how judicial vacancies are filled
The Saints have re-signed defensive end Chase Young to a three-year contract that will pay him 51-million dollars. Young had joined the Saints last year on a one-year deal. Young says the new contract means a lot to him.

With LSU’s men’s basketball season coming to a merciful end yesterday, Tigers fans are probably wondering why they can’t get a coach like Will Wade, who’s leading McNeese to the NCAA Tournament for a second year in a row. The fact is, Wade DID coach at LSU from 2017 until 2022, when he was unceremoniously let go. Wade signed a two-year contract with McNeese that expires at the end of this season, and he said it’s a commitment that was important for him to keep.
While Wade may be considering his future at the end of this season, he says his focus now is to lead the Cowboys to their first NCAA Tournament win in program history.
