24TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT CRIMINAL COURT NO. 24-KH-471 VERSUS FIFTH CIRCUIT CLARENCE GIBSON COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF LOUISIANA
October 11, 2024 Linda Wiseman First Deputy Clerk
IN RE CLARENCE GIBSON APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE R. CHRISTOPHER COX, III, DIVISION "B", NUMBER 07-6779
Panel composed of Judges Susan M. Chehardy, Fredericka Homberg Wicker, and Jude G. Gravois
WRIT DENIED Relator was charged with aggravated rape of a known juvenile in violation of La. R.S. 14:42. In 2009, after a jury trial, he was convicted of the lesser included offense of sexual battery, in violation of La. R.S. 14:43.1, and sentenced to 25 years of imprisonment at hard labor. Relator’s conviction and sentence were reviewed and upheld by this Court and the Louisiana Supreme Court. State v. Gibson, 09-486 (La. App. 5 Cir. 3/9/10), 38 So.3d 373, writ denied, 10-802 (La. 11/5/10), 50 So.3d 814.
On October 9, 2024, relator filed this writ application asserting this Court is currently reviewing the trial court’s 2009 ruling denying his “Motion for New Trial and for Post-Verdict Judgment of Acquittal,” because it was never previously appealed. He mentions one of the issues in his motion pertaining to a juror, but does not request any particular relief.
24-KH-471 A review of our records reveals there is no pending appeal in this matter.
Accordingly, the relief relator seeks through this writ application is unclear.
Because relator has not presented anything for this Court to review and also fails to comply with U.R.C.A., Rules 4-2, 4-3, and 4-5, this writ application is denied.
Gretna, Louisiana, this 11th day of October, 2024.
