Interesting. If martial law means suspension of the constitution, then I’d agree it’s not a thing.

But governors’ rule making per emergency power have been upheld everywhere at least to some extent. Not sure the source of the power… and perhaps parish execs don’t have it: I would need to research

I emailed the advocate this document and asked them to cover it.

There is probably a big, tremendous gray area around all of this that lawyers can use to make money. There really shouldn't be, though. This Cooper guy (or Aaron Broussard, etc., for that matter) shouldn't have much power at all, and shouldn't have any role in dealing with emergencies. We have cops and the National Guard for that.
