STATE of Louisiana v. James S. HOLLOWAY.
    No. 55984.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 18, 1975.
   In re: State of Louisiana through William J. Guste, Jr., Attorney General, applying for writs of supervisory review, 309 So.2d 684.

Writ denied. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in ruling to quash the information.

SANDERS, C. J.,

is of the opinion that a writ should be granted. The continuance incident is not a legal ground for a motion to quash. See LSA-C.Cr.P. Art. 532.

SUMMERS, J.,

dissents. The trial judge was without authority to quash this indictment on the facts shown. See La. Code Crim.Proc. Art. 532.
