Linda Tran

IN RE CLARENCE O. GIBSON

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 07-6779

Panel composed of Judges Jude G. Gravois,
Marc E. Johnson, and Scott U. Schlegel

WRIT DENIED

In this pro se writ application, relator, Clarence Gibson, appears to challenge
his conviction for sexual battery, asserting that he is innocent of said charge and he
was wrongfully convicted by a less than unanimous jury (10 out of 12). By way of
background, following a jury trial, relator was found guilty of sexual battery, and
on April 3, 2009, he was sentenced to twenty-five years imprisonment at hard
labor. In 2010, relator’s conviction and sentence were upheld by this Court and the
Louisiana Supreme Court. See State v. Gibson, 09-486 (La. App. 5 Cir. 3/9/10), 38
So.3d 373
, writ denied, 10-802 (La. 11/5/10), 50 So.3d 814. In his writ
application, relator does not reference or include any recent ruling by the trial
court, and fails to provide a notice of intent requesting a return date, or an order
setting a return date, as required by Uniform Rules–Courts of Appeal, Rules 4-2, 4-
3, and 4-5(C). Relator has presented nothing for this Court to review.
Accordingly, on the showing made, this writ application is denied.

Gretna, Louisiana, this 14th day of August, 2025.
