Opinion

No. 52114.

April 13, 1972.

Levy, Smith Pailet, Adolph J. Levy, New Orleans, for defendant-appellant.

Jack P. F. Gremillion, Atty. Gen., Harry H. Howard, Asst. Atty. Gen., Jim Garrison, Dist, Atty., Louise Korns, Asst. Dist. Atty., for plaintiff-appellee.


The defendant, Willie Charles Washington, appeals from a conviction of armed robbery, La.R.S. 14:64, for which he was sentenced to thirty (30) years in the state penitentiary.

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.

For the contentions argued on this appeal, his remedy is by appropriate postconviction proceedings.

The conviction and sentence are affirmed.
