Overview: Defendant's motion to suppress was denied because (1) a Houston detective did not violate defendant's right to remain silent under the Fifth Amendment by informing him of what he would be charged with in Louisiana and the extradition process; and (2) he waived his right to remain silent when he spontaneously blurted out an inculpatory statement.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: First degree robbery conviction under La. Rev. Stat.

| State v. Smith, 05-1355,
COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, THIRD CIRCUIT, March 1, 2006, Opinion Delivered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Appeal was dismissed and remanded because once defendant's conviction and sentence became final, defendant could no longer obtain an appeal by simply filing a motion for appeal, and defendant's motion for appeal should have been treated by the trial court as an application for post conviction relief requesting an out-of-time appeal.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: In a molestation case, although the trial court failed to comply with La. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 894.1, the record supported the 10-year sentences on three counts where defendant was in a supervisory familial relationship to victims, the abuses occurred over a five-year period, and defendant admitted to a year of abuse.

| State v. Thomas, 05-1051,
COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, THIRD CIRCUIT, March 1, 2006, Opinion Rendered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: By increasing the amount of restitution awarded to a victim at the motion to reconsider hearing, the trial court resentenced defendant; thus, his presence was required by La. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 835. Therefore, appellate court had to remand case to trial court for a consideration of the imposition of restitution while defendant was present.

COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, THIRD CIRCUIT, March 1, 2006, Opinion Rendered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: The State did not need to present evidence that defendant used a weapon to be convicted of aggravated rape as the fact that the victim was 77-years-old at the time of the rape was sufficient to support the conviction under La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 14:42.

| Stracener v. Joubert, 05-1121,
COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, THIRD CIRCUIT, March 1, 2006, Opinion Rendered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Trial court erred in applying La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 9:344 (rather than La. Civ. Code Ann. 136) in determining the paternal grandparents' visitation schedule as the child's father was killed in a car accident after his divorce from the mother; the fact that the judgment of divorce was not signed until the day after his death was of no consequence.
