STATE OF LOUISIANA v. DE'QUAN HUTCHINSON
In Re: State of Louisiana, applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. DC-23-00896.
BEFORE: WELCH, WOLFE, AND STROMBERG, JJ.
WRIT GRANTED. The district court abused its discretion in failing to select a trial date with the input of the parties. See State v. Chinn, 2011-2043 (La. 2/10/12), 92 So.3d 324, 328 n.7. Accordingly, the ruling setting this case for trial on July 8, 2024 is reversed and the matter is remanded for the district court to select a trial date with the input of the parties.
