WASHINGTON – Baton Rouge trial lawyer Darrel Papillion was nominated as a trial judge on the New Orleans-based U.S. Eastern District of Louisiana bench, the White House announced Monday afternoon. A former president of the Louisiana State Bar, Papillion represents plaintiffs in complex wrongful death and personal injury lawsuits, including those involving injuries caused by consumer products, industrial accidents and other allegations. He was tapped by President Joe Biden to replace U.S. District Court Judge Carl Barbier, of New Orleans, who at the age of 78 has taken senior status.
