Louisiana court backs homeowner’s right to block neighbours from private road beyond 1,000 feet

Mona Matherne spent over a decade contesting neighbors’ use of a private road beside her country home. In November 2026, state appeals judges upheld her property rights and confirmed previous court orders. Matherne successfully argued against her neighbors, who claimed the road was public. The court ruled that only the first 1,000 feet was public, protecting Matherne’s privacy.
