¶1In re Rideau, Wilbert; — Defendant; Applying for Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs, Parish of Calcasieu, 14th Judicial District Court Div. E, Nos. 15321-01; to the Court of Appeal, Third Circuit, No. KW 03-01313.

¶2Writ denied.

TRAYLOR, J., recused.
JOHNSON, J.,

¶3would grant the writ application to consider whether the principles of double jeopardy would preclude a fourth trial of this defendant. The issue has never been considered by a Louisiana court, although the United States Supreme Court and other courts have barred re-trial on double jeopardy grounds when the prosecution has engaged in willful and deliberate misconduct.
