State Of Louisiana v. Armand Steward

STATE OF LOUISIANA
COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT

STATE OF LOUISIANA NO. 2026 KW 0589
VERSUS

ARMAND CARTEZ STEWARD JULY 13, 2026
In Re: Armand Cartez Steward, applying for supervisory writs,

19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton
Rouge, No. DC-24-04323.

BEFORE : THERIOT, LANIER, AND MILLER, JJ.

WRIT DENIED ON THE SHOWING MADE. Relator failed to include a
copy of the transcript of the probation revocation proceeding and
the rule to revoke probation. Thus, this court cannot adequately
review the district court’s decision to revoke relator’s
probation. Furthermore, the appropriate method to raise claims
regarding the revocation of probation is a properly filed
application for postconviction relief, which must be filed within
two years of the revocation. See State ex rel. Clavelle v. State,
2002-1244 (La. 12/12/03), 861 So.2d 186, 187 (per curiam).
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. In the event relator elects
to file a new application with this court, he may do so without
the necessity of obtaining a return date, and the application shall
be filed on or before October 20, 2026. Any future filing on the
issues presented herein should include the entire contents of this
application, the missing items noted above, and a copy of this
ruling.
