Opinion
In re Mayo, Anthony; — Plaintiff(s); applying for supervisory and/or remedial writs; Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court, Div. “D”, No. 82797.
Granted in part; not considered in part. As to relator’s claim of ineffective assis[161]*161tance of counsel on appeal, the district court is ordered to grant relator an out-of-time appeal and to appoint counsel to handle the appeal on relator’s behalf. See, Lofton v. Whitley, 905 F.2d 885 (5th Cir.1990); State v. Robinson, 590 So.2d 1185 (La.1992). If appointed counsel, after reviewing the record, finds no basis for assigning error on appeal, he may follow the procedure outlined in State v. Benjamin, 573 So.2d 528 (La.App. 4th Cir.1990). As to relator’s other claims, they are prematurely before this Court and [are] not considered. La.C.Cr.P. art. 924.1.
