Opinion of the Court

In re: Elrick J. Manuel applying for writ of habeas corpus.

Writ denied. The showing made does not warrant the exercise of this Court’s supervisory jurisdiction. See State v. Williams, 262 La. 769, 264 So.2d 638 (1972); La.Code Crim.Pro. art. 880 (1970); Parker v. Estelle, 498 F.2d 625 (5th Cir. 1974), this latter case holding there is no absolute constitutional rights to pre-sentence detention credit.
