Louisiana Appeals Court Upholds Disqualification of New Orleans Defense Attorney from Judge Race
A Louisiana appeals court has ruled to keep New Orleans defense attorney John Fuller off the ballot for the criminal court judge seat. The court upheld a lower courts decision to disqualify Fuller from the May sixteenth election. The challenge was brought by voter Andrew Bradley Towbin, who pointed out Fullers failure to file his 2020 state tax return, a requirement for candidates under Louisiana law. Fuller, known for high-profile cases, testified that he thought his tax preparer handled the filing, but the appeals court rejected his claim, citing a lack of evidence that the Louisiana Department of Revenue received the return. Fuller plans to appeal to the Louisiana Supreme Court.
