160 So. 3d 582

STATE of Louisiana v. Bernard J. LAMPTON.

No. 2015-KK-253.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

Feb. 6, 2015.

HUGHES, J.,

would grant the writ and assigns reasons.

Respectfully, 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..
