STATE of Louisiana ex rel. Kenneth Earl WATKINS v. Hon. Elmo E. LEAR, Judge, 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge.
    No. 55962.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    March 7, 1975.
   In re: Kenneth Earl Watkins, applying for writ of Mandamus.

Writ denied. The ruling of ' the trial judge is correct. See Daniel v. Louisiana, 420 U.S. 31, 95 S.Ct. 704, 42 L.Ed.2d 790 (1975).

BARHAM, J.

is of the opinion the motion to quash the jury indictment is good because that grand jury was discriminato-rily empaneled without females. The trial is pending. Taylor v. Louisiana, 419 U.S. 522, 95 S.Ct. 692, 42 L.Ed.2d 690 (1975), applies to this case.
