2008 Judicial Interest Rate is 8.50%
La. R.S. 13:4202(B), as amended by Acts
2001, No. 841, requires the Louisiana Commissioner of Financial
Institutions to determine the rate of judicial interest. The
commissioner has determined that the rate of judicial interest for
the calendar year 2007 will be 9.5%. The determination was made in
accordance with La. R.S. 13: 4202(B)(1).
This determination and its publication in the Louisiana Register
shall not be considered rule-making, within the intendment of La.
R.S. 49:950 et seq., the Administrative Procedure Act, particularly
La. R.S. 49:953; therefore, a fiscal impact statement, a family
impact statement and a notice of intent are not required by the APA.
