Opinion

No. 52701.

October 26, 1972.

Benjamin E. Smith, Smith Scheuermann, New Orleans, for defendant-appellant.

William J. Guste, Jr., Atty. Gen., Harry H. Howard, Asst. Atty. Gen., Richard H. Kilbourne, Dist. Atty., Fred C. Jackson, Asst. Dist. Atty., for plaintiff-appellee.


The defendant appeals from a conviction, after trial by jury, of aggravated rape (La.R.S. 14:42), for which he was sentenced to life imprisonment.

The defendant perfected no bills of exceptions. We are therefore limited on appeal to a review of the pleadings and proceedings for discoverable error. La.C.Cr.P. Art. 920; State v. Ash, 257 La. 337, 242 So.2d 535 (1971). We find none.

The conviction and sentence are affirmed.
