    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 26, 1974.
   In re: Freddie Martin applying for Writs of Habeas Corpus and Certiorari.

Writ refused. Because of emergency situation at Orleans Parish prison, the detention at Angola has been allowed. See No. 53,953, State ex rel. Mathews v. Henderson, La., 292 So.2d 496.
