|||||

COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, FOURTH CIRCUIT, March 29, 2006, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: The State's multiple bill was quashed in a rape case because a plea agreement precluded such; the State's error in the calculation of good time credit under La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 15:571.3(D) did not vitiate consent because the agreement was made due to witness unavailability, and the prosecutor had not researched the law prior to the agreement.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Court did not err in denying defendant's motion for funding for psychiatric and psychological experts as, absent a change of plea from "not guilty" to "not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity," motion was premature pursuant to La. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. arts. 561, 650, and 651, but court erred in denying request for funding for a DNA expert.

|||||
Overview: Defendant's conviction for driving while intoxicated under La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 14:98 was supported by sufficient evidence as although videotape did not prove that defendant was intoxicated, tape did not contradict deputy's assertions in police report that defendant's car weaved over center line and that she smelled of alcohol and slurred words.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Home's occupants allegedly breathed polychlorinated biphenyls after air conditioner's capacitor ruptured. Federal Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) did not preempt suit against manufacturers under Louisiana Products Liability Act (LPLA) because TSCA did not provide means of avoiding this type of harm, while LPLA did govern the means to that end.

|||||
Overview: Although there was sufficient evidence in a wife's petition and affidavit to establish a prima facie case for divorce under La. Civ. Code Ann. art. 103(1), a trial court abused its discretion by deciding matters such as child custody, support, and a child tax deduction because there was no hearing in open court to acquire evidence and testimony.
