§3509.4. Deferment of loan payments during declared disaster
Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, when the governor declares a state of disaster or emergency pursuant to R.S. 29:721 et seq., and the federal financial regulatory bodies issue guidelines to financial institutions regarding their response thereto, the commissioner of the Office of Financial Institutions is authorized to expend funds in the utilization of all reasonably efficient means of communication to encourage and facilitate communication between Louisiana citizens and their particular financial institution and to inform and educate Louisiana citizens of their potential options under such guidelines.
If a lender requires full payment of the deferred principal and interest upon termination of the deferment period, then the lender shall obtain written approval from the borrower prior to the acceptance of the deferment.
