In Louisiana, for what maximum duration can a lease be oral and still enforceable in court?

In Louisiana, an oral lease is enforceable in court for any length of time, as long as it can be proven. The Civil Code allows for verbal agreements to be binding, but challenges arise when disputes occur, as there may be difficulties in proving the terms and conditions of an unrecorded oral contract. Leases longer than one year, however, must be in writing to be enforceable under the Statute of Frauds. Therefore, while you can have an oral lease for any duration and still hold it enforceable, it's typically advisable to have leases documented to avoid misunderstandings. This flexibility stands in contrast to the other choices which impose specific time constraints that do not align with the principle of enforceability in Louisiana's legal framework.
