MINOR

The bill was finalized and enrolled, converting the draft text into the official legislative format. The substantive content remains focused on recognizing the 200th anniversary of the Louisiana Civil Code, with minor phrasing adjustments to improve flow and clarity. The resolution directs a copy of the final document to the official bicentennial steering committee.

TECHNICAL

Text was reorganized and rephrased to transition from a draft version to the official enrolled version, ensuring proper legislative formatting and title placement.

Official signatures and titles for the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House were added to finalize the document.

Drafting notes, page headers, and the original digest explaining the bill's purpose were removed as they are no longer needed in the final version.
