Terms Used In Louisiana Revised Statutes 22:1506

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.

Insurers using credit information to underwrite or rate risks shall provide a process for the consumer to appeal the underwriting or rating of risks for which credit scoring may be an inappropriate factor.  Nothing in this Section shall be construed to provide a consumer or other insured with a cause of action that does not exist in the absence of this Section.
