Decision Number 900

Decision

The revised and amended Structure and Rules of the Louisiana Annual Conference adopted on June, 2000 do not comply with the 1996 Discipline and Judicial Council decisions. When an annual conference seeks to establish its own structure, that structure must be in accordance with the requirements of the Discipline and Judicial Council decisions in order to be constitutional. The structure is null and void and of no effect until such time that the deficiencies are cured and the Judicial Council approves the structure. The Conference Structure and Rules are hereby remanded to the Louisiana Annual Conference for further action.
