House Bill No. by Representative Marcelle amends and reenacts R.S. 13:1401.1 and 1403, which pertains to the judgeships of the family court for East Baton Rouge Parish. The bill establishes three election sections for the family court, with significant changes to the precinct boundaries for each section. Specifically, election section one will now include a new set of precincts, while election sections two and three will also have their precincts redefined. The bill specifies that the precincts referenced are based on the "2026 Precinct Shapefiles" and outlines how any subdivisions of these precincts will be treated in terms of representation.

Additionally, the bill clarifies the election process for judges in the family court. It states that there will be four judges, with one judge from election section one (Division B), one from election section two (Division C), and two judges from election section three (Divisions A and D). The bill ensures that current judges will continue to serve in their designated sections until their terms are completed, and it establishes that successors will be elected from the respective election sections as defined in the amended law. The act will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated time for gubernatorial action.
