STATE of Louisiana v. Hercules BODIE.
    No. 86-K-0048.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    March 14, 1986.
    For opinion see La, 480 So.2d 399.
   LEMMON, J.,

concurs. The error in allowing the district attorney to cross-examine relator about a prior conviction denied by him, without first establishing authenticity of conviction out of the presence of the jury, is harmless beyond a reasonable doubt in this case because of defendant’s admission to five other convictions.

CALOGERO, J., would grant the writ.
