BROWN, C.J.
This is an appeal from a judgment disqualifying defendant, Billy James, as a candidate for the Tallulah City Council. The district court found that the provisions of Article I, Section 10(B) of the Louisiana Constitution do not permit James, who pled guilty to a felony in 1989, to qualify for public office. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the trial court's judgment.
