STATE of Louisiana v. Ron CRAWFORD.
    No. 97-KK-1213.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    May 7, 1997.
    Rehearing Denied June 30, 1997.
   In re State of Louisiana; — Plaintiff(s); applying for supervisory and/or remedial writs; Parish of Orleans, Criminal District Court, Div. “A”, No. 376-284; to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, No. 97KW-0956.

Writ granted. The trail court’s denial of the State’s motion to quash is reversed. The state’s motion to quash subpoenas is granted.

LEMMON, J.,

dissents from granting a summary reversal without affording respondent an opportunity to be heard especially in a non-emergency situation.

KIMBALL, J., not on panel.

CALOGERO, Chief Justice,

concurring in part, dissenting in part.

I concur. The majority is correct insofar as the testimony subpoenas are concerned. However, I dissent as far as the subpoena duces tecum is concerned. I believe that the subpoena duces tecum should be honored. The trial court could then conduct an in camera review of the State’s files.
