State v. Stewart

Supreme Court of Louisiana

Decided September 30, 1974

Supreme Court of Louisiana · decided 1974-09-30

Decided 1974-09-30

¶1In re: Rodney Stewart applying for writs of certiorari, prohibition, mandamus, and habeas corpus.

¶2Writ granted. It is ordered that the trial judge hold a preliminary examination pursuant to the original order for that hearing as soon as possible.

SUMMERS, J., dissents. In my view the filing of a bill of information establishes probable cause for holding the accused, and the trial judge has discretion to grant or refuse a preliminary hearing.
