In Re: Jarius D. Wingard, applying for supervisory writs,

19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, Nos. 03- 14- 1061, 04- 14- 0669, 05- 15- 0381.

BEFORE: McDONALD, THERIOT, AND CHUTZ, JJ.

WRIT DENIED. A district court has no authority to amend or modify a legal sentence in a felony case in which the defendant has been sentenced to imprisonment at hard labor after the

defendant has begun serving the sentence unless the court grants a timely filed motion to reconsider sentence. See La. Code Crim. P. arts. 881 ( A) & 881. 1 ( A) ( 1) . See also State v. Gedric,

99- 1213 ( La. App. 1st Cir. 6/ 3/ 99), 741 So. 2d 849, 851- 52 ( per

curiam), writ denied, 99- 1830 ( La. 11/ 5/ 99), 751 So. 2d 239. Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion by denying the motion to amend or modify sentence.
