COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT

STATE OF LOUISIANA NO. 2026 KW 0132

VERSUS

CHARLES FAIR FEBRUARY 5, 2026

In Re: Charles Fair, applying for supervisory writs, 23rd
Judicial District Court, Parish of Assumption, No. 24-
51.

BEFORE: THERIOT, BALFOUR, AND HAGGERTY,! JJ.

WRIT NOT CONSIDERED. Counsel failed to comply with the

affidavit and return date requirements of Uniform Rules of
Louisiana Courts of Appeal, Rules 4-3 and 4-5. Counsel failed to
comply with Rules 4-5(C) (6), (7), (8), (9) and (10), by failing
to include a copy of the ruling complained of, the judge’s reasons
for judgment (if any), the motion at issue, the indictment, a
statement that no written opposition was filed, and the pertinent
court minutes. Moreover, although it is not a violation of the
Uniform Rules, we note that counsel failed to include the relevant
portions of the trial transcript and a copy of any exhibits

introduced at the proceedings. Therefore, this court cannot
adequately review the ruling at issue herein. See City of Baton
Rouge v. Plain, 433 So.2d 710 (La.), cert. denied, 464 U.S. 896,
104 S.Ct. 246, 78 L.Ed.2d 235 (1983). Supplementation of this

writ application and/or an application for rehearing will not be
considered. See Uniform Rules of Louisiana Courts of Appeal, Rules
2-18.7 & 4-9. Any future filing on this issue should include the
entire contents of this writ application, the missing items noted
above, and a copy of this ruling.
