LARRY DAVIS NO. 25-KH-437 VERSUS FIFTH CIRCUIT STATE OF LOUISIANA COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF LOUISIANA

September 25, 2025 Linda Tran First Deputy Clerk

IN RE LARRY DAVIS APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE RAYMOND S.

STEIB, JR., DIVISION "A", NUMBER 19-3252

Panel composed of Judges Susan M. Chehardy, John J. Molaison, Jr., and Scott U. Schlegel

WRIT DENIED AS MOOT The relator, Larry Davis, has filed a pro se writ application seeking a writ of mandamus to compel the district court to provide him with a copy of the transcripts from his criminal trial. While the instant application is deficient, we observe from his prior writ application that on June 24, 2025, the trial court granted trial counsel’s motion to withdraw as counsel of record, granted the relator’s motion for appeal, and appointed the Louisiana Appellate Project to represent the relator for purposes of his appeal. Davis v. State, No. 25-KH-274, 2025 WL 1826057 (La. App. 5 Cir. July 2, 2025). We also note that the record for Mr. Davis’s appeal was lodged with this Court on August 29, 2025.

After Mr. Davis has received the NOTICE OF LODGING OF RECORD from his appellate counsel, he will have 10 DAYS from the date that notice was mailed to him by his attorney to file a written request to view the record on appeal with this court. For this reason, we deny Mr. Davis’s writ application seeking mandamus relief directed toward the district court as moot.

Gretna, Louisiana, this 25th day of September, 2025.
