    STATE of Louisiana v. Daryl HAMPTON et al.
    No. 59740.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 20, 1977.
   In re: Daryl Hampton,,Jerome Robinson, Claude Robinson, George Washington applying for writs of certiorari, mandamus, prohibition, and for stay order.

Application denied; there is no law requiring the pre-trial production of the testimony or evidence to be adduced from the witness Reel; we decline to rule in advance on a question of recess during trial, but note that there is an adequate remedy by appeal in the event of error and conviction.

TATE, J.,

dissents. The accused will be denied due process unless they are allowed access to the state’s expert information in time to prepare their defense. At a minimum, a recess must be allowed to the accused for their own expert investigation of the state’s scientific evidence, after it is introduced by the state. Relief requested should be granted now to avoid trial disruption and the probability of reversal in the event of conviction.
