State v. Henson

State v. Henson
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided March 9, 1977 · Tate
342 So. 2d 1109; 1977 La. LEXIS 6221 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Henson

Concurring Opinion

TATE, J.,

concurs in the denial. While the writer had reservations about the failure of the State to furnish the names of any other member of the alleged conspiracy, the indictment names the only other member of the conspiracy, thus limiting the State’s proof to a conspiracy between the accused and that person. The accused is therefore not prejudiced by the State’s failure to furnish the information requested.

Opinion of the Court

In re: James Barney Henson applying for writs of review, prohibition and/or mandamus.

Writ denied. Applicant has an adequate remedy by appeal in the event of conviction. The Court will not interfere with the orderly proceedings in the trial court in the absence of palpable error and great injustice.
