SUPREME COURT OF LOUISIANA

No. 01-KH-1464 STATE OF LOUISIANA v. KENNETH WILSON

On Writ of Certiorari to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal

PER CURIAM: Writ granted in part; otherwise denied; case remanded. Because relator's "judgment of conviction and sentence" did not become final under La.C.Cr.P. art. 922 until this Court denied his application for writs on direct review in February, 2000, see State v. Wilson, 99-2583 (La. 2/11/00), 754 So.2d 935, the prescriptive period of La.C.Cr.P. art. 930.8 does not bar consideration of relator's application for post-conviction relief filed in March, 2001. The district court is accordingly ordered to give the application merits consideration. In all other respects the application is denied.
