State v. Simmons
Supreme Court of Louisiana
State v. Simmons, 760 So. 2d 333 (La. 2000)
2000 La. LEXIS 1236
Calogero, Grant, Knoll, Lemmon, Writ
State v. Simmons
Opinion of the Court
In re Simmons, Kenneth; — Defendant; Applying for Writ of Certiorari and/or Review, Parish of Jefferson, 24th Judicial District Court Div. L, Nos. 95-1196; to the Court of Appeal, Fifth Circuit, No. 98-KA-841.
Denied.
Concurring Opinion
concurs in the denial because I believe, contrary to the determination by the court of appeal, that the trial judge did not err in denying relator’s motion for mistrial during the prosecutor’s closing argument. Moreover, if the denial had been reversible error, I further disagree that the error would have been harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.
