Supreme Court of Louisiana, 1985

State v. Shea

State v. Shea
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided August 19, 1985 · Dennis
474 So. 2d 439; 1985 La. LEXIS 10294 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Shea

Opinion of the Court

DENNIS, Justice,

dissenting.

I respectfully dissented from the original majority opinion because it failed to persuade me that the rule of Edwards v. Arizona, 451 U.S. 477, 101 S.Ct. 1880, 68 L.Ed.2d 378 (1981), should be applied prospectively only. I was persuaded to the contrary by Justice Marcus’ opinion on rehearing, however, and at that time joined the majority.
