House Bill No. by Representative Galle aims to establish strict regulations regarding the release of inmates during declared emergencies in Louisiana. The bill enacts R.S. 29:740, which prohibits the release of inmates by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections (DPS&C) or any local facility without an individualized court order. It specifies that during such emergencies, no court, sheriff, or private contractor has the authority to release any inmate unless a court order is issued following a motion served to the district attorney of the relevant parish.

The bill emphasizes the importance of judicial oversight in the release of inmates during emergencies, ensuring that such actions are not taken lightly or without proper legal procedures. The effective date of the bill is contingent upon the governor's signature or the expiration of the time for bills to become law without signature.
