IN RE RICKSHAWN E. WILLIAMS

APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT,
PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE
R. CHRISTOPHER COX, III, DIVISION "B", NUMBER 10-1400

Panel composed of Judges Marc E. Johnson,

WRIT GRANTED

In this pro se writ application seeking mandamus relief, the relator,
Rickshawn E. Williams, states that he filed a “motion for clarification of sentence
over nine months ago and did [sic] get any response.”

We first note that the relator has not attached a copy of this motion to this
writ application. However, in the interest of judicial economy, we grant relator
mandamus relief and direct the district court to rule on the relator’s motion for
clarification of his sentence, if it has not already done so. We further order the
district court to serve a copy of its ruling on the relator’s motion for clarification at
the address that appears on this writ application, i.e., East Carroll River Bend
Detention Center, 9450 US-65, Lake Providence, LA 71254.

Gretna, Louisiana, this 15th day of March, 2024.
