Legislature Adjourns Sins Die

At the Capital

 
The 2010 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature adjourned "Sine Die" at 6:00 p.m. Monday, June 21, 2010 as required by the Louisiana Constitutiont. The Term "Sine Die" is Latin for "without day", but what it really means is adjounrment without a date certain for reconvening. What it means is that the 2010 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature is over and that the legislators will be returning home to their districts.
