Concurrence Opinion

DENNIS, J.,

concurs, but points out that the trial judge may nevertheless exclude the evidence, even though logically relevant, if its probative value is outweighed by other factors such as risk of confusion, excessive consumption of time, or undue prejudice. See State v. Ludwig, 423 So.2d 1073 (La.1983).

CALOGERO, J., would grant the writ.
