§2952.  Failure to pay child support; effect on trade, occupation, and professional licensing

A.  Regardless of requirements for the issuance or renewal of a trade, occupational, or professional license or grounds for suspension or revocation thereof, all trade, occupational, or professional licensees are subject to the provisions of R.S. 9:315.30 et seq., suspension of license for nonpayment of child support.

B.  The legislature recognizes the judicial power vested in the state supreme court pursuant to Article V, Section 1 of the Constitution of Louisiana and, accordingly, urges and requests the supreme court to adopt rules and regulations effecting the suspension of licenses to practice law consistent with the provisions of R.S. 9:315.30 et seq.  In cases wherein the obligor is an attorney licensed to practice law in this state, a judgment or order indicating noncompliance with an order of support shall be mailed to the state supreme court and the Louisiana State Bar Association.
