v.
JOHNNY VICKERS, JR.
On Writ of Certiorari to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit, Parish of Ascension
PER CURIAM:
Writ granted in part; otherwise denied. The court of appeal’s ruling on

pretermitted for consideration on collateral review, if defendant chooses to raise it,
by application for post-conviction relief. In all other respects, the writ is denied.
