No. 61810.

368 So.2d 961 (1978)

STATE of Louisiana v. Leonard BROWN.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

On Rehearing March 5, 1979.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John M. Lawrence, Orleans Indigent Defender Program, New Orleans, for defendant-appellant.

William J. Guste, Jr., Atty. Gen., Barbara Rutledge, Asst. Atty. Gen., Harry F. Connick, Dist. Atty., Maurine A. Carroll, William L. Brockman, Brian G. Meissner, Asst. Dist. Attys., for plaintiff-appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed.

TATE and DIXON, JJ., dissent. A defendant should not be required to wear a prison jumpsuit at his trial, however attractive, when he objects and desires to wear his own civilian clothes.

MARCUS and CALOGERO, JJ., concur, for reasons assigned by TATE and DIXON, JJ., but do not consider that the error warrants reversal of the conviction in this instance.

On Rehearing

TATE, Justice.*
