State ex rel. Hassan A. Abdul, Iv v. State of Louisiana

Summary

The Supreme Court of Louisiana denied the petition for post‑conviction relief, finding the petitioner’s claims either procedurally barred, unpreserved, or unsupported. The court held that the defendant’s self‑representation waiver was knowing and voluntary, that successive applications are prohibited absent narrow exceptions, and that the remaining claims were barred by La.Cr.P. art. 930.4.
