Supreme Court of Louisiana · decided 2010-07-07

Relies on Lee v. Illinois

Decided 2010-07-07

¶1In re Perkins, Joseph; — Defendant; Applying For Supervisory and/or Remedial *590Writs, Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court Div. E, No. 479-859; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. 2010-K-0971.

¶2Stay denied. Writ denied.

KNOLL, J., concurs.

¶3In my view, because of the posture of the trial, ruling on this matter would be premature. In the event the State attempts to introduce the statement, the trial court should rule on its admissibility under Lee v. Illinois, 476 U.S. 530, 106 S.Ct. 2056, 90 L.Ed.2d 514 (1986).
