STATE EX REL. ROBERTSON v. STATE

No. 2000-KD-1059.

760 So.2d 1163 (2000)

STATE ex rel. Allen ROBERTSON, Jr. v. STATE of Louisiana.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

April 26, 2000.

Granted. The district court's denial of relator's application for post-conviction relief is vacated, and the court is directed to recall the warrant of execution set for May 18, 2000. The district court is ordered to refrain from issuing a new warrant of execution until counsel has been appointed to represent relator and has had reasonable opportunity to pursue relator's post-conviction remedies. The district court is further ordered to immediately conduct a hearing, with the Louisiana Indigent Defense Assistance Board for the purpose of appointment of counsel. See La.R.S. 15:149.1; La.R.S. 15:151.2(E)(2).

MARCUS, J., not on panel.
