Granted in part; denied m part. The trial court’s judgment of December 6, 1988, denying petitioner relief in case number 272-486, is amended to allow for review of future applications for post-conviction relief filed by this petitioner.

C.Cr.P. art. 929, disposition based upon an evidentiary hearing, La.C.Cr.P. art. 930, and dismissal based on repetitiveness, La. C.Cr.P. art. 930.4, it does not allow for prospective denial of applications not yet filed. In all other respects, the petitioner’s application for post-conviction relief is denied.
