State v. Loupe

Supreme Court of Louisiana October 17, 1975

State v. Loupe, 320 So. 2d 564 (La. 1975)

1975 La. LEXIS 4567

Dixon, Intent, Long, Recess, That, Violates, Within, Year

Opinion of the Court

In re: Joseph B. Loupe applying for Writs of Certiorari, Prohibition, Mandamus and Stay Order.

Writ refused. The showing made is insufficient to warrant the exercise of our supervisory jurisdiction. See LSA-C.Cr.P. art. 708, comments (b).

DIXON, J., is of the opinion that the long “recess” violates the clear intent of the code requirements that the State must try misdemeanors within one year.
