WRIT GRANTED. The trial court's ruling denying relator's motion to quash is vacated, and this matter is remanded for reconsideration.

See La. Code Crim. P. art. 578. If the court grants the motion to quash, it shall order any detainers generated by the charges removed. See State v. Williams, 2001-1249 (La. 5/25/01), 792 So.2d 744.
