Opinion of the Court

In re: State of Louisiana through the District Attorney, Parish of Orleans applying for writs of certiorari, mandamus and prohibition.

Writ denied. The matter has been resolved by the parties.

DIXON, J., concurs in the denial, being of the opinion the application is wholly without merit. The D. A. does not have the right to force a judge to fix a case for trial on a certain day. The judge controls his court.
