State v. Allen

State v. Allen
Louisiana Court of Appeal · Decided March 17, 2015 · Amy
215 So. 3d 759; 15 La.App. 3 Cir. 00196; 2015 La. App. LEXIS 528 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

State v. Allen

Opinion of the Court

J¿WRIT DENIED:

Although titled “Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus,” Defendant’s pleading, in reality, requests relief under La.Code Crim.P. art. 701. There is no time limitation for the contradictory hearing required by art. 701. In this case, the district court has scheduled a hearing for March 19, 2015. We find such time period reasonable. Accordingly, we deny Defendant’s writ.

AMY, J., concurs.
