Civil Litigation Jury Trials in Louisiana
-With regards to the below statement, Louisiana also permits jury trials in civil litigation. Louisiana has no state constitutional right to jury trials in civil litigation, but the Louisiana legislature has long had laws which allow jury trial in civil cases. Jury trials are just as common in civil litigation in Louisiana as anywhere else in the US.

"There is not a United States constitutional right under the Seventh Amendment to a jury trial in state courts, but in practice, almost every state except Louisiana, which has a civil law legal tradition, permits jury trials in civil cases in state courts on substantially the same basis that they are allowed under the Seventh Amendment in federal court."
