Opinion of the Court

In re Rankin, Henry; — Plaintiff(s); applying for supervisory and/or remedial writ; Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court, Div. “B”, No. 288-636; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. 92KW-1731.

Writ granted; case remanded to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit. Relator timely filed an application for post conviction relief in the district court and subsequently supplemented it; the district court then denied the application as supplemented on the merits. Cf. State ex rel. Duhon v. Whitley, 92-1740 (La. 9/2/94), 642 So.2d 1273. The court of appeal is therefore ordered to, review the merits of relator’s application for supervisory writs.
