Calcasieu Parish Public Defenders

Sylvia Welborn called this afternoon. Sylvia is asking all Calcasieu Parish Indigent Defender Office employees (attorneys, investigators, staff) to please contact her. Her numbers are:

337-474-2905

Cell 337-884-2113

If you get a busy signal, keep trying.
If you can’t get through to Sylvia, you are welcome to contact me at the numbers below, and I will get word through to Sylvia.

Sylvia reports the following regarding the IDO offices and building:

No power

No water

One of the main entrances is imploded

The State Farm office on the 1st floor was blown out.

She believes there may be structural damage to the building.

Word is that the earliest people will be able to (legally) return to Lake Charles is October 3, but while they were saying that earlier, they now seem to be saying “to be announced.”

For payroll, if you will call Sylvia, she will get your paycheck mailed to you wherever you are.

Sylvia is making arrangements to retrieve the server, computers, and payroll information from the offices. We are looking for temporary office space as near as possible to Lake Charles for your office to operate out of temporarily.
