State v. Lampton

Supreme Court of Louisiana

Decided February 6, 2015

Supreme Court of Louisiana · decided 2015-02-06

Decided 2015-02-06

HUGHES, J.,

¶1would grant the writ and assigns reasons.

¶2Respectfully, I believe that setting a trial in three weeks’ time that conflicts with a prior setting in a different parish set three months in advance may infringe on the constitutional right to counsel. A trial judge may wish to accommodate the prosecutor’s choice for a trial date and move the docket, but respect should be given to the other trial courts of our state..
