State v. Williams
State v. Williams
309 So. 2d 338; 1975 La. LEXIS 5160
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
State v. Williams
Opinion of the Court
In re: John P. Williams applying for Remedial and/or Supervisory Writs of Certiorari, Prohibition and/or Mandamus.
Writ denied. The trial court erred in reopening the State’s case sua sponte after the State had rested its case and after relator moved for a directed verdict. C.Cr. P. art. 778. Nevertheless, the reading of the legal evidence presented- by the State in chief supports the denial of the motion for directed verdict.
