Description
This civil case addresses the legal question of whether the Louisiana Board of Ethics ("Board") exceeded its expressed authority provided by La. R.S. 18:1511.4(C), the Louisiana Campaign Finance Disclosure Act ("CFDA"), in issuing the subpoenas duces tecum at issue in this writ. The district court found the subpoenas did exceed the Boards authority and permanently enjoined the Board from issuing any subpoena upon the plaintiffs. The court of appeal affirmed the district courts ruling on the subject subpoenas, but modified the permanent injunction to enjoin the Board only from enforcing or reissuing the four subpoenas at issue. We granted this writ to address the validity of the subpoenas duces tecum and the permanent injunctions. Mary Moe, L.L.C. et al. v. Louisiana Board of Ethics, 03-2220 (La. 11/26/03), __ So.2d __. For the following reasons we reverse, finding the lower courts erred in enjoining the Board from issuing and enforcing the relevant subpoenas duces tecum.
