No. 99-KK-3343 Precedential Remanded Processed

State v. McGhee

Louisiana Supreme Court · Filed December 8, 1999 · 752 So. 2d 770

Opinion text

PER CURIAM. * The state’s application is granted. The state timely filed the bill of information as a multiple offender. Moreover, defendants’ good time release under La. Rev.Stat. 15:571.5(A)(1), as amended in *771 1981, is the equivalent of parole and does not fully discharge him from state supervision until the balance of his sentence lapses at the full term date. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court granting the motion to quash the multiple offender bill is reversed, and the case is remanded to the district court for further proceedings. The stay order is vacated as unnecessary. Johnson, J., not on panel. Rule IV, Part 2, § 3.
