State v. Jackson

Supreme Court of Louisiana
State v. Jackson, 512 So. 2d 424 (La. 1987)
1987 La. LEXIS 9882

State v. Jackson

Opinion of the Court

In re Jackson, Arthur E.; applying for writ of habeas corpus; Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court, Div. “J”, No. 300-933.

Granted and remanded to the Court of Appeal for reconsideration in light of the minute entry of May 16, 1984, reflecting that relator requested a continuance and that the judge denied the request. Relator’s assertion that the amendment of the bill of information deprived him of his right to present a defense and his assertion that counsel was unprepared for trial raise issues cognizable on application for post-conviction relief. La. Const. art. I, § 16; La.C. Cr.P. art. 930.3(1).
