STATE EX REL. Fredrick J. WEBB v. STATE of Louisiana
    No. 15-KH-2074
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    03/13/2017
   PER CURIAM:

| iDenied. Relator does not identify an illegal term in his sentence and therefore his filing was properly construed by the district court as an application for post-conviction relief. See State v. Parker, 98-0256 (La. 5/8/98), 711 So.2d 694. Relator previously exhausted his right to state collateral review and does not carry his burden of showing any exception applies here. See State v. Webb, 15-0962 (La. 9/25/15), 175 So.3d 954. We attach hereto and make a part hereof the District Court’s written reasons denying relief.

Relator has now fully litigated three applications for post-conviction relief in state court. Similar to federal habeas relief, see 28 U.S.C. § 2244, Louisiana post-conviction procedure envisions the filing of a second or successive application only under the narrow circumstances provided in La.C.Cr.P. Art. 930.4 and within the limitations period as set out in La.C.Cr.P. Art. 930.8. Notably, the Legislature in 2013 La. Acts 251 amended La.C.Cr.P. Art. 930.4 to make the procedural bars against successive filings mandatory. Relator’s claims have now been fully litigated in state collateral proceedings in accord with La.C.Cr.P. Art. 930.6, and this denial is final. Hereafter, unless he can show that one of the narrow exceptions ^authorizing the filing of a successive application applies, relator has exhausted his right to state collateral review. The District Court is ordered to record a minute entry consistent with this per curiam.
