Well, what I’m really claiming that the charge is not outrageous on its face. More than that would be hard to say without spending some time studying Louisiana law.

Actually, that’s the kicker. Lousiana law is unique among the states for having its roots in civil law, which I don’t have much expertisein… so I’d be very hesitant to start looking up case law and claiming I understand its precedential value in Louisana.

Well, I doubt there’s a huge difference. But if you think that Louisiana law adds more uncertainty to the analysis, I think that supports my argument that the charges are not outrageous on the surface.
