Judge Blocks Teacher Bonus Lawsuit | New Orleans News
Description
A Baton Rouge judge just dismissed a lawsuit attempting to stop Governor Landry’s $168 million plan to pay teachers $2,000 bonuses and support staff $1,000 — a move already approved by both legislative chambers and set to launch July 1. The plaintiffs, former education leaders and a current school board member, claimed the governor overstepped his authority, but the judge ruled their lawyers had a conflict of interest and the governor wasn’t properly notified. Now, the plaintiffs are scrambling to decide whether to hire new counsel and refile — risking missing the July deadline — while the Attorney General’s office remains silent on the evolving situation.
