2026 LEGAL UPDATES

Service Description

August 2026 delivers several criminal law changes that will affect daily enforcement operations across Louisiana. This class provides a complete update on the statutes, legal developments, and procedural issues officers and supervisors need to know. The course also examines the ongoing shift from “Excited Delirium” to “Acute Behavioral Emergency” terminology. As these concepts increasingly influence use-of-force investigations, civil litigation, policy development, and courtroom testimony, agencies must understand the practical and legal implications of this evolving landscape.
