Opinion text
PER CURIAM. Writ granted in part; otherwise denied. Relator has identified with reasonable specificity that his constitutional claims relating to alleged errors during voir dire might entitle him to post conviction relief. Therefore, he has demonstrated a “particularized need” for a transcript of the voir dire and the district court is thus ordered to produce those documents free of charge, see United States v. MacCollom, 426 U.S. 317, 324 , 96 S.Ct. 2086, 2091 , 48 L.Ed.2d 666 (1976); State ex rel. Bernard v. Cr. D.C., 94-2247, p. 1 (La.4/28/95), 653 So.2d 1174, 1175 , and then afford relator reasonable time to supplement his post-conviction application with support from the record for his underlying claims. In all other respects, the application is denied.
