House Bill No. [insert bill number] appropriates $8,500 from the State General Fund for the fiscal year 2025-2026 to pay a consent judgment in the case of "Lisa Chamberlain and Webster Chamberlain versus State of Louisiana, Department of Transportation and Development and the Caddo Parish Commission." This judgment, signed on March 8, 2018, is associated with the First Judicial District in Caddo Parish. The bill stipulates that payment will cover principal, interest, court costs, and expert witness fees as awarded in the judgment, and it will only be made after the necessary documentation is presented to the state treasurer.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions that clarify the relationship between the judgment and the proposed law, stating that if there are any conflicts, the judgment will take precedence. It also specifies that interest on the judgment will cease to accrue as of the effective date of the proposed law. The act will become effective upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the time allowed for gubernatorial action expires.
