Opinion
No. 52378.
October 4, 1972.
Appeal from Twentieth Judicial District Court, Parish of West Feliciana; William T. Bennett, Judge.
William E. Woodward, Clinton, for defendant-appellant.
William J. Guste, Jr., Atty. Gen., Warren E. Mouledoux, Asst. Atty. Gen., Richard H. Kilbourne, Dist. Atty., Fred C. Jackson, Asst. Dist. Atty., for plaintiff-appellee.
Willie Edmonson appeals from his conviction of attempted murder. La.R.S. 14:27 and 14:30. He was sentenced to 20 years.
The defendant reserved one bill of exception to the court's denial of an application for a bill of particulars in which he requested pre-trial discovery of information relating to the State's witnesses.
It is now well settled that the information sought by the defendant is not subject to pretrial discovery under our criminal procedure. State v. Davis, 259 La. 35, 249 So.2d 193 (1971); State v. Coney, 258 La. 369, 246 So.2d 793 (1971).
There is no merit in the bill of exception and no error discoverable in our review of the pleadings and proceedings.
The conviction and sentence are affirmed.
