STATE of Louisiana v. Robert O’BRIEN, John O’Neill, John Herman, David Grussfeld, Steve Martin, Greg Orr, Michael Tidmarsh and Richard Badalaro.
    No. 60352.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    July 26, 1977.
   In Re: Robert O’Brien, et al. applying for writs of certiorari, prohibition, mandamus and habeas corpus.

Writ refused. Insufficient showing at this time to warrant the quashing of the subpoenas.

CALOGERO, J.,

concurs. Absent a showing that applicants are to be questioned concerning the transaction out of which they have been charged by bill of information, and until attempt is made to require applicants to appear before the grand jury without counsel, I am unprepared to find erroneous the trial court’s determination refusing to quash the subpoenas.

MARCUS, J., concurs for reasons assigned by Justice CALOGERO.

DENNIS, J., concurs for the reasons stated by CALOGERO, J. and because we cannot assume that applicants will be denied their rights to remain silent and to assistance of counsel at each stage of the proceedings.
