Opinion text

PER CURIAM. Granted. The district court is ordered to appoint counsel for relator and to hold a hearing at which it will determine whether misinformation with regard to relator’s eligibility for diminution of sentence pursuant to La.R.S. 15:571.3 (“good time”) constituted a material inducement for his guilty plea to armed robbery which precluded relator from entering a knowing and voluntary guilty plea “with eyes open,” Adams v. United States ex rel. McCann, 317 U.S. 269, 279 , 63 S.Ct. 236, 242 , 87 L.Ed. 268 (1942), and entitles him to withdraw that plea. See State ex rel. Aleman v. State, 99-0488 (La.10/1/99), 745 So.2d 602 . TRAYLOR, J., would deny the writ.
