Ina Tuesday Sept. 25, 2012 file photo, Aaron Broussard walks out of New Orleans federal court after pleading guilty to political corruption charges. Former Jefferson Parish President Broussard, the star witness, will be absent when a long-awaited trial opens Monday, Jan. 13, 2014 for claims that thousands of homes flooded in the suburbs of New Orleans because parish officials evacuated its drainage pump operators on the eve of Hurricane Katrina's landfall. He is serving a prison sentence in North Carolina for his role in a bribery plot and isn't expected to testify in person about the "Doomsday Plan" that the parish carried out before the August 2005 storm struck on his watch.
