RS 47:335.8: Agreement beneficiaries; standing

A. The agreement authorized by this Chapter binds and inures only to the benefit of the state of Louisiana and the other member states. No person, other than a member state, is an intended beneficiary of the agreement. Any benefit to a person other than a state is established by the law of Louisiana and the other member states and not by the terms of the agreement.

B. Consistent with Subsection A, no person shall have any cause of action or defense under the agreement or by virtue of this state's approval of the agreement. No person may challenge, in any action brought under any provision of law, any action or inaction by any department, agency, or other instrumentality of Louisiana, or any political subdivision of Louisiana on the ground that the action or inaction is inconsistent with the agreement.

C. No law of Louisiana, or the application thereof, may be declared invalid as to any person or circumstance on the ground that the provision or application is inconsistent with the agreement.
