Louisiana release information belongs to the agency that held or supervised the person. For a state placement or projected release date, follow the DPS&C locator instructions and call the automated Imprisoned Person Locator at 225-383-4580 with the DPS&C number or the person's name and date of birth. Sentence-computation questions go to 225-342-0799. For a defined DPS&C public record, write the Deputy Secretary's Office, P.O. Box 94304, Baton Rouge, LA 70804, call 225-342-6744, fax 225-342-3095, or email docpublicrecords@la.gov. That records office does not answer sentence-calculation questions.

Parole hearing results come from the Louisiana Board of Pardons & Committee on Parole at 225-342-9191 or 225-342-6622, paroleboard@la.gov, P.O. Box 94304, Baton Rouge, LA 70804-9304. Active supervision assignments should be checked through the DPS&C Probation and Parole district locator. LA VINE status and notification help is available at 866-528-6748. Formal LAVO notice questions go to Victim Services at 225-342-1056, 888-342-6110, or victimservices@la.gov.
