State v. Sylvester

Annotate this Case

444 So. 2d 606 (1984)

STATE of Louisiana v. Daryl SYLVESTER.

No. 83-K-2340.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

January 6, 1984.

Denied. The result is correct.

DIXON, C.J., and LEMMON, J., concur in the denial. R.S. 15:48 is misquoted and misapplied by the Court of Appeal in Assignment # 1. Nevertheless, the victim's dangerous character was well established, and the error was harmless.
