Terms Used In Louisiana Revised Statutes 13:714

  • En banc: In the bench or "full bench." Refers to court sessions with the entire membership of a court participating rather than the usual quorum. U.S. courts of appeals usually sit in panels of three judges, but may expand to a larger number in certain cases. They are then said to be sitting en banc.

A.  The office of commissioner of the Fifteenth Judicial District Court is hereby created.  

B.  The commissioner shall be selected by a majority of the duly elected judges of the district sitting en banc.  The commissioner shall serve at the pleasure of the court and may be removed from office by a majority of the elected judges of the district.  Additionally, the commissioner shall be subject to removal from office for any reason for which a district judge may be removed.
