State ex rel. Riley v. Henderson

Supreme Court of Louisiana
State ex rel. Riley v. Henderson, 263 La. 95 (La. 1972)
267 So. 2d 207; 1972 La. LEXIS 5353
Barham, Dixon, Refusal, Tate

State ex rel. Riley v. Henderson

Opinion of the Court

Writs denied. In view of the written reasons by the trial judge the showing made does not warrant the exercise of our original or supervisory jurisdiction.

BARHAM, J.,

is of the opinion the writ should be granted. See Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238, 89 S.Ct. 1709, 23 L.Ed.2d 274.

Dissenting Opinion

TATE, J.,

dissents. In the absence of a contemporaneous recording, the conclusionary statement in the minutes at the time of the plea of guilty that the Boykin interrogation was conducted does not justify the denial of an evidentiary hearing on the petitioner’s allegations that no such interrogation took place and that the minutes’ general allegations are not correct.

DIXON, J., dissents from refusal.
