STATE of Louisiana ex rel. John J. McKEITHEN, Governor of the State of Louisiana, and Jack P. F. Gremiliion, Attorney General of the State of Louisiana v. Jessel M. OURSO, Sheriff of the Parish of Iberville, State of Louisiana.
No. 49213.
May 1, 1968.

Opinion:
In re: Jessel M. Ourso applying for writs of certiorari, prohibition and mandamus and/or review.
The application is not considered. Notwithstanding the language of Article 9, Section 7, Louisiana Constitution, this case is now appealable to the Court of Appeal. See Article 7, Sections 10 and 29, Louisiana Constitution, as amended by Act No. 561 of 1958. Hence, application for writs must first be made to the Court of Appeal before invoking the supervisory jurisdiction of this Court.
