The parish government said that all agencies housed within the courthouse — including the Sheriff, Judges, Assessor and Clerk of Court — have relocated to several different buildings around town.
Sheriff Rene’ Thibodeaux said the closure is to remove termites and asbestos from the 122-year-old courthouse. He said it would take about six months to a year.
