Opinion
No. 52848.
October 4, 1972.
In re: State of Louisiana applying for writs of certiorari, mandamus and prohibition.
This Court will not interfere with the orderly trial of a criminal case except where irreparable injury is shown. No such showing having been made, the application is denied.
McCALEB, C. J., and SANDERS, J., although of the opinion that the judge erred in curtailing the district attorney's cross-examination of the defense witness on a matter pertaining to the veracity of her testimony concerning the affirmative defense of entrapment, nevertheless concur in the denial of the application as it has long been the policy of this Court not to interfere with the orderly progress of a criminal trial on questions pertaining to the admission or rejection of evidence, save in cases where a motion to suppress has been erroneously sustained.
