Word on the street is that louisperret.com was published by a disgruntled former employee of the Clerk’s Office and that more pages will be published soon.
As heard, this employee had access to all of the computer records, e-mail records, rfp's and other records, some of which may prove embarrassing to the current clerk. As heard, this disgruntled former employee also has information regarding some type of possible questionable activity on the part of the clerk but will not divulge the nature or type of the “questionable” activity.

Whomever it is they need to keep up the good work, that sure is some interesting info. I would like to see a website like this for every elected official to show what is really going on.

Interesting enough, the site states “This website is dedicated to political criticism, parody and satire.”
Not much parody or satire and only really critical if Perret does not like the information made public.
The published information appears to be completely factual and fairly well documented.

Well the RINO Clerk of Court has opposition. I hope the same is true of the RINO Assessor.

Well, at least one has opposition. I am a little disappointed that no one stepped up against the Assessor as well. I think the Clerk will wind up getting indicted after this one if what I am hearing is true. That would be a good lesson to the rest of them; this is not their kingdom, and the employees are not their slaves.
My friends were handed bumper stickers by their boss at work, and implication is they better be put on cars. That sounds like a bit of employee intimidation. Why should people have to work under that kind of bull ? They were required to stay after work for political assignment today. This is the 21st century I thought.

If they were "required" to stay after work for a political meeting, that is illegal.
But Napoleon is not dead, just reincarnated into a slightly taller version.

Well, everyone is going to have an opportunity to "walk" the neighborhoods for Napoleon. Of course, it is voluntary. If you do not volunteer, you do not have a job. Sounds like a federal EEOC lawsuit brewing. Of course, they will want to dump the cost of the suits on the taxpayers, who should in no way be required to bear the cost of damages made by a bad administrator, but we will see. The new jingle in the courthouse "Ho,Ho,Ho,Perret's got to go.

Well, he needs to take his little "shadow" with him. I think most everybody wants her gone more than him. Ho,Ho,Ho. I like that.

Is Louis Perret that arrogant or just plain stupid? Did he really have his re-election yard signs printed by Crown delivered to the Purchasing Department of the Lafayette Parish Clerk of Court’s Office on the 11th?
Talk about an ethics violation and also a policy violation of the Clerk’s Personnel Manual, the one about receiving personal property at the Office. But, I guess the manual does not apply to the one who wrote it. As to the ethics violation, Perret has certainly been down that road before.
And did he really look KATC in the camera last week and tell them that he, like all of the others, had no opposition?

Yes, Virginia, there is an election for Clerk of Court in Lafayette Parish. It was not in the paper, but it is on the Secretary of State's website:
Clerk of Court 1 to be elected Roger D. Lehman, Democrat, Ballot # 61 Louis J. Perret, Republican, Ballot # 62
Every voter needs to know
1) there is an election
and
2) the qualifications and background of each candidate.
No run off on this one, folks!

I hope this Clerk's election will not be like the last election. I don't know if it was an oversight or deliberately done, but the present Clerk (Louis Perret) political party was left off the sample ballets. WHY . Also I would like to see the present Clerk and the person running for that office have a debate. I believe that the person in that position should have complete knowledge of all the departments not only administration. I believe that the other voters in the Carencro area agree with my opinions.

I just heard they now have a potty patrol in the Clerk's office. What's next. Is this a public office or nursery school?

Well I for one am thankful to hear that. We cannot just allow employees to use just any restroom in the courthouse. My o'my, what is next; those girls will want two bathroom breaks a day. Will employee abuse never end?
I find this kinda funny; Our old mayor (Kenny Bowen, may he rest in peace)was accused of micro management when he went to various departments and on occasion actually tried to run the various departments. Our Clerk of Court evidently cannot see the bigger picture, so he has his chief administrator following staff into the bathrooms. Can you see the problem here ? No wonder this guy is the laughingstock of the courthouse. Does he really think employee control must extend to such a personal level ?
One of his crew came to my house in Broadmoor the other day because he is making them walk and pass out literature for him. She was less than enthused, but said she had to to keep her job. I told her I hope he gets soundly beaten and does not deserve to be a public office holder. I hope they hear that message a lot.

WOW just read the websight (www.louisperret.com), looks like alot of time and research went into it. You would think if the facts were not correct LJP would attempt some sort of rebut. I would like to see the two canidates go after it maybe we could really see who has the quilifacations.
You would think after 9 years and as much education dollars spent by the Clerks office on LJP training he could except the any questions put to him. Whomever published it seems to know alot about the office and LJP.
"HO,HO,HO Perret has to go, and his little dog Doodoo too" Thats good stuff.
Sorry I been away so long, but family issues come first. Hope I have not missed to much. I have however been hearing things from Vermillion, and Acadia Parish. It seems LJP is getting involved in more than just his race. What's the word on the street of Lafayette.

According to Louis Perret's own bio, he has not done much as Clerk. Lots of self serving political stuff, mainly benefiting himself not the office or his employees. Raise money for charities, receive some higher education degree, no doubt paid for with office money. I really do not see much accomplishment there.
Is there really a "potty patrol" in the Clerk's Office? Somebody really does have too much time on their hands.
Perhaps, if they are not careful, maybe "Pooh", too?

I do not vote strictly by party, and have come to observe there really is not much difference in party philosophy. Republicans are now "tax and spend", democrats are dysfunctional as a party. I look at the person.
If these comments regarding bathroom monitors in the courthouse are in fact correct, that alone justifies this person being evicted from office. How on earth can you work adults, especially in the public sector, and treat them like pre-schoolers ?
And by the way, I resent these people telling me I cannot bring a cell phone into a public building when I see them all wearing one on their belt. Who works for who ?

Jeff, the bathroom monitor is fact not rumors. The employees take enough abuse without adding something so immature. The majority of the employees has 20 years experience, and do an excellent job, with all that has been occurring has their morale extremely low.

I am sorry for you people who are working there. Unfortunately, unless he is defeated, you will be forced to look for employment elsewhere, or learn to co-exist with a tyrant.

I agree, Crow & Voltar, that the candidates for Clerk of Court should debate because there are lots of issues that need to be addressed....issues that the general public have no knowledge of..
