State v. CockerhamState v. Cockerham

Supreme Court of Louisiana

No. 2017–KO–1802
Versions:245 So. 3d 1035
GENOVESE, J., would grant for the reasons assigned by Judge Holdridge.

CRICHTON, J., would grant in part and assigns reasons:

As Judge Holdridge notes in his dissent below, without an amendment to the habitual offender bill of information by the district attorney, the district court was limited to sentencing the defendant as a third-felony offender. I agree and would therefore reverse the fourth-felony adjudication and remand to the district court for further proceedings.
