- Q. What is needed to sell property after probate judgment in Louisiana?
- A: Not sure what exactly you are asking but In order to transfer property in Louisiana you have to have an authentic act signed by seller and buyer in front of a notary and 2 witnesses. And for it to be valid as to third parties, the executed authentic ast needs to be recorded in the public records of the parish the property is located.

- Q. What are the consequences for speeding 115 in a 70 mph zone in LA?
- A: If you were not issued a ticket, then most likely none.

Unless you have omitted something I doubt you are facing an period of incarceration. Also, unless you are able to negotiate a better resolution, your citation may end up on your driving record which can be used by insurance companies to raise your rates----this is reason enough to consult with a traffic ticket attorney in the area of the citation and explore options if oyu hire him.
- Q. Missed first court date, possible warrant issued—next steps?
- A: Depending on the underlying charge and your history (or non-history) with missing court and the reason why you missed court, most likely you simply face a fine. That said, you need to answer the warrant to get it recalled---if not you are subject to being picked up whether from a traffic stop and they coming to get you. If you have an attorney, contact your attorney and discuss the next steps; if you were going to hire an attorney, then now is a good time to do it so you can have your attorney with you. If not, simply contact the Court, tell them you missed Court and ask what needs to done.
