State v. Hall

4 Citing cases

  1. State v. Lark

    324 So. 3d 744 (La. Ct. App. 2021)

    SeeClark , 02-1463, p. 37, 851 So.2d at 1082. Further, Louisiana courts have consistently upheld stipulations entered into by a defendant and his defense counsel, and the State. SeeState v. Fabacher , 362 So.2d 555, 558 (La. 1978) ; State v. Henry , 352 So.2d 643, 648 (La. 1977) ; State v. Harris , 470 So.2d 601, 603 (La. App. 1st Cir. 1985) ; State v. Wry , 591 So.2d 774, 780 (La. App. 2d Cir. 1991) ; State v. Hall , 47,564, p. 12 (La. App. 2 Cir. 12/12/12), 108 So.3d 188, 196-97. Indeed, criminal trials conducted wholly or partially based on stipulations, although rare, are not unheard of or impermissible in Louisiana and do not entitle defendants to the constitutional protections set forth in Boykin . SeeHall , 47,564, p. 12, 108 So.3d at 195-96 ; Harris , 470 So.2d at 603 ; State v. Owens , 501 So.2d 968, 972 (La. App. 2d Cir. 1987).

  2. State v. Harrison

    219 So. 3d 316 (La. 2017)

    Defense counsel actually conceded defendant committed the acts. CompareState v. Hall , 47,564 (La.App. 2 Cir. 12/12/12), 108 So.3d 188, 195–96 and State v.Harris , 470 So.2d 601, 603 (La. App. 1st Cir. 1985), writ denied , 477 So.2d 1123 (La. 1985).Before a plea of guilty can be accepted, the trial court must determine that the accused has a full understanding of what the plea connotes and its consequences, specifically that the defendant understands the nature of the charges, his right to a jury trial, the acts sufficient to constitute the offense for which he is charged and the range of possible sentences.

  3. State v. Harrison

    No. 2016-KO-0178 (La. May. 12, 2017)

    Defense counsel actually conceded defendant committed the acts. Compare State v. Hall, 47,564 (La. App. 2 Cir. 12/12/12), 108 So. 3d 188, 195-96 and State v. Harris, 470 So. 2d 601, 603 (La. App. 1st Cir. 1985), writ denied, 477 So. 2d 1123 (La. 1985). Before a plea of guilty can be accepted, the trial court must determine that the accused has a full understanding of what the plea connotes and its consequences, specifically that the defendant understands the nature of the charges, his right to a jury trial, the acts sufficient to constitute the offense for which he is charged and the range of possible sentences.

  4. State v. Harrison

    2015 KA 1044 (La. Ct. App. Dec. 23, 2015)

    Further, Louisiana courts have consistently upheld stipulations entered into by a defendant and his defense counsel and the State. See State v. Fabacher, 362 So.2d 555, 558 (La. 1978); State v. Henry, 352 So.2d 643, 648 (La. 1977); Harris, 470 So.2d at 603; State v. Hall, 47,564 (La. App. 2d Cir. 12/12/12), 108 So.3d 188, 196-97; State v. Wry, 591 So.2d 774, 780 (La. App. 2d Cir. 1991). Considering the foregoing, we find no merit in pro se assignment of error number three.
