On a sheet of paper that came with my shiny new parish permit, it listed the rules for the state permit and said that they ALL apply to parish permits as well. However, at the bottom, it listed as a source, RS 40.1379.3! Nowhere under RS 40.1379.3 does it even mention RS 40.1379.1 or any wording about parish permits.
I'm not an attorney. Since the parish has tied the rules for their permit to the same rules that are applicable to the state permit and the source RS 40.1379.3 is the state authorization...the rules for parish permits may not be annotated in each jurisdiction, therefore they merely say same rules apply. This would keep from having to duplicate or further ammend parish law when changes are made to the state law. My 2¢
Well, sheriffs don't make law, so what they write has no force of law. They could hand out copies of paper saying that it's illegal to eat pecan pie but it wouldn't hold the force of law.
If there is some sort of Parish law stating that the rules are the same, then I need to see it.
