State Of Louisiana v. George Wright ( 2023 )

STATE OF LOUISIANA STATE OF LOUISIANA NO. 2023 KW 0287 VERSUS GEORGE WRIGHT JULY 5, 2023 In Re: George Wright, applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. 08- 14- 0118. BEFORE: LANIER, HESTER, AND MILLER, JJ. WRIT DENIED. The failure to file a pretrial motion to quash waives any challenge to the grand jury. See La. Code Crim. P. arts. 535( C), 521( A), & 535( D). Furthermore, the criminal court minutes show that the indictment was concurred by at least nine of the grand jury members, indorsed " a true bill", and signed by the foreperson. Therefore, the district court did not err by denying the motion. No contradictory hearing is required. WIL CHH SMM
