Decision Awaited In Court Hearing On Reapportionment
A New Orleans three judge panel had not ruled by noon on the Ouachita Parish school board and police jury reapportionment appeal as voters faced a near election. Arguments by Paul Kidd for plaintiffs and Ouachita County officials stressed urgency while Judge Dawkins ordered commissions to the winners by Jan 3 if needed. The outcome could force a redo of elections or render the decision moot.
