Opinions

In re: Dallas Brownfield applying for writs of certiorari, prohibition, mandamus and habeas corpus.

Writs denied. Considering the petition of the applicant, as well as the affidavit of the defense attorney (under our supervisory authority, cf., State v. Davidson, 248 La. 161, 177 So.2d 273) the applicant states no ground for relief.

BARHAM, J., dissents and assigns written reasons. DIXON, J., dissents from refusal.

Our habeas corpus statute clearly requires an evidentiary hearing.
