STATE of Louisiana v. Letha Mae BRANTLEY.
    No. 58672.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    Sept. 30, 1976.
   In re: Letha Mae Brantley, applying for writ of review and certiorari.

Writ denied. Under La. Code of Criminal Procedure, Art. 884 (1968) the defendant cannot be sentenced to a jail term exceeding six months, and therefore right to a jury trial has not been violated.

DIXON, J.,

is of the opinion the writ should be granted and this Court should write on the question. Nevertheless, the reasons given in the denial are correct.
