- Specialized provider: means a child-placing agency, maternity home, or residential home. See Louisiana Revised Statutes 46:1403
- Temporary restraining order: Prohibits a person from an action that is likely to cause irreparable harm. This differs from an injunction in that it may be granted immediately, without notice to the opposing party, and without a hearing. It is intended to last only until a hearing can be held.
If any specialized provider operates without a valid license issued by the department, the department may file suit in the district court in the parish in which the specialized provider is located for injunctive relief, including a temporary restraining order, to restrain the institution, society, agency, corporation, person or persons, or any other group operating the specialized provider or agency from continuing the violation. The state health officer shall have exclusive authority over all matters involving the prevention or spread of communicable diseases within a specialized provider.
