Effect of sustaining an objection to candidacy
A. Disqualification. Except as provided in Subsection B of this Section, when an objection to
candidacy is sustained on any of the grounds provided for in R.S. 18:492, the final judgment shall disqualify
the defendant as a candidate in the primary election for that office.
B. Withdrawal. When an objection to candidacy is sustained on the ground that the defendant is
prohibited by law from becoming a candidate for one or more of the offices for which he qualified in the
primary election, the final judgment shall order the defendant to remove the grounds for the objection by
withdrawing from the primary election for one or more of the offices. If the defendant fails to comply with
this judgment within twenty-four hours after it becomes definitive, the court shall render judgment
disqualifying the defendant as a candidate for all of the offices for which he qualified in the primary election.
