STATE of Louisiana v. Joseph PERKINS.
    No. 2010-KK-1595.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    July 7, 2010.
   In re Perkins, Joseph; — Defendant; Applying For Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs, Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court Div. E, No. 479-859; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. 2010-K-0971.

Stay denied. Writ denied.

KNOLL, J., concurs.

In my view, because of the posture of the trial, ruling on this matter would be premature. In the event the State attempts to introduce the statement, the trial court should rule on its admissibility under Lee v. Illinois, 476 U.S. 530, 106 S.Ct. 2056, 90 L.Ed.2d 514 (1986).
