Walker v. Coleman

In Walker v. Coleman, 540 So. 2d 983 (La. Ct. App. 1989), a state agency attempted to sell an unused public road pursuant to a statute that generally allowed the state agency to sell public property. Id. at 984. The court invalidated the sale because the statute specifically addressing the disposition of abandoned roads only provided for reversion of such roads to the contiguous landowners. Id. at 986.
