STATE v. HART

No. 84 KA 1464.

472 So.2d 280 (1985)

STATE of Louisiana v. Lester HART.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, First Circuit.

June 25, 1985.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ossie Brown, Dist. Atty. by Tom Walsh, Asst. Dist. Atty., Baton Rouge, for plaintiff-appellee.

David Price, Asst. Public Defender, Baton Rouge, for defendant-appellant.

Before COLE, CARTER and LANIER, JJ.


CARTER, Judge.

The principal question on appeal is whether the trial court obtained from the defendant, Lester Hart, a knowing and intelligent waiver of his right to counsel when the court accepted his guilty plea. Also at issue is whether or not defendant's sentence is excessive.

The procedural posture of this proceeding has been set forth succinctly in State v. Hart, 457 So.2d 1250
