JCL LOBRANO, J., CONCURS IN THE RESULT
I concur in the result but note concern that the law may inadequately protect
property owners, especially the elderly and impoverished. Starks’s claim, while
falling outside the limited grounds in La. R.S. 47:2286 and not well developed
factually, raises valid questions about pre-sale advertisement requirements. The
2008 reforms did not provide a clear remedy for such violations. The Legislature
should consider whether further clarification is needed to ensure fairness in future
cases.
