Council names Livingston Parish courthouse jury holding room for Judge Robert 'Bob' Morrison

The Livingston Parish Council voted unanimously on April 9 to name the first‑floor jury holding room in the Livingston Parish Courthouse for the Honorable Robert "Bob" Morrison.

Speakers at the meeting recounted Morrison's 32 years on the bench and his role in advancing the new courthouse project. "He served as a district judge for 32 years... he was more than instrumental in the new courthouse that we have," one presenter said as the council moved to honor Morrison.

Judge Morrison, who was present for the recognition, said he appreciated the acknowledgment and thanked the council. "I really appreciate it. I'm very honored about the whole thing," he said.

The motion to rename the room passed unanimously. Council members and the judge posed for photos following the vote.
