Head Matter:
STATE of Louisiana v. Michael FERRAND.
No. 60649.
Supreme Court of Louisiana.
March 15, 1978.
Patrick D. McArdle, Orleans Indigent Defender Program, New Orleans, for defendant-appellant.
William J. Guste, Jr., Atty. Gen., Barbara Rutledge, Asst. Atty. Gen., Harry F. Con-nick, Dist. Atty., Louise Korns, Asst. Dist. Atty., for plaintiff-appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The issue of whether the defendant was denied effective assistance of counsel is more properly raised by application for writ of habeas corpus. State v. Anthony, 347 So.2d 483 (La.1977); State v. Ross, 343 So.2d 722 (La.1977); State v. Mouton, 327 So.2d 413 (La.1976).
Finding no reversible error based on the record before us, defendant's conviction and sentence are affirmed.
