PAUL KNATT, III
Writ Application from Iberia Parish Case No. 11-CR-1790
BEFORE JUDGES:
Hon. John D. Saunders
Hon. Phyllis M. Keaty
Hon. Candyce G. Perret
As counsel of record in the captioned case, you are hereby notified that the ruling on
the application for rehearing filed by State of Louisiana is:
REHEARING DENIED. The State fails to show the untimely filing of the writ
application was not due to its own fault as required by Uniform Rules ─
Courts of Appeal Rule 4-3. Tracking information obtained from the receipt
submitted with the State’s rehearing application showed the package was
dropped off after the final pickup occurred for that FedEx location. Thus, the
package was not mailed until the next day. Accordingly, the receipt
submitted with the State’s writ application was not made at the time of
mailing as required by Uniform Rules ─ Courts of Appeal Rule 2-13.
