Lamont D. Alston sought supervisory and/or remedial writs from the Supreme Court of Louisiana regarding his case in the 24th Judicial District Court, which had previously been handled by the Court of Appeal, Fifth Circuit. His application was denied. The ruling referenced Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure articles 930.8 and 930.3, as well as precedents from State ex rel. Glover v. State and State ex rel. Melinie v. State, indicating that the court found no merit in Alston’s claims or arguments for the writs. The decision was issued on March 28, 2008.
