STATE of Louisiana ex rel. Joey L. BARNES v. STATE of Louisiana.
    No. 81-KH-1363.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    June 22, 1981.
   In re Joey L. Barnes applying for Remedial Writ, Parish of Terrebonne.

Writ denied.

DENNIS, J.,

concurs in the denial of this application because the applicant has made no showing of a need for him to serve as his own co-counsel other than the bare statement that his trial counsel was ineffective.

DIXON, C. J.,

would grant the writ and permit relator to serve as his own co-counsel. He raises the issue of ineffectiveness of the counsel appointed to represent him.
