Concordia Parish Clerk of Court Guide

Note: Louisiana imposes NO statewide probate tax and NO value-bracket court-cost scale; each parish Clerk of Court sets its own advance court-cost deposit under the La. R.S. 13:841 maximums. The Concordia Parish Clerk of Court (7th Judicial District Court) publishes a civil-fees schedule that sets a $300.00 advance deposit for a new suit (petition, one defendant), plus $50.00 secretary-of-state fees where service applies; a succession is a civil filing opened under that advance-deposit category, so formal_administration records the $300.00 advance deposit. The page does not itemize a separate small-succession amount (a small-succession affidavit affecting real estate is recorded in the parish land records at the conveyance recording cost), so small_estate_affidavit is left null. The succession representative's default compensation is 2.5% of the inventory (La. C.C.P. art. 3351). Confirm the current succession advance deposit with the Clerk before filing.
