Opinion

In re Prudhomme, Terry; — Plaintiffs); applying for supervisory and/or remedial writ; Parish of Natchitoches, 10th Judicial District Court, Div. “B”, No. 412,107.

Granted. The district court is ordered to grant relator an out-of-time appeal and appoint counsel to handle the appeal. See Lofton v. Whitley, 905 F.2d 885 (5th Cir.1990). If appointed counsel, after review of the record, finds no basis for assigning error on appeal, he or she may follow the procedure outlined in State v. Benjamin, 573 So.2d 528 (La.App. 4th Cir.1990).

HALL, J., not on panel.
