State Of Louisiana v. Jason Jenkins ( 2023 )

STATE OF LOUIS,IANA COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT STATE OF LOUISIANA NO. 2022 KW 1349 VERSUS JASON JENKINS MARCH 6, 2023 In Re: Jason Jenkins, applying for supervisory writs, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, No. DC-22-05306. BEFORE: WELCH, PENZATO, AND LANIER, JJ. WRIT DENIED. The records of the Office of the East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk of Court reflect that on October 31, 2022, relator was timely charged by bill of information with the offenses of manufacture/ distribution of a Schedule I and possession of a Schedule II drug. Therefore, a request for release under La. Code Crim. P. art. 701(B) is moot. Additionally, the district court minutes reflect that the matter was timely set for arraignment on November 21, 2022, in accordance with La. Code Crim. P. art. 701(C). However, the matter was continued to allow relator to retain counsel. Therefore, this claim lacks merit. JEW AHP WIL COURT OF APPEAL, FIRST CIRCUIT DEPUTY CLERK OF COURT FOR THE COURT
