TROY LANCASTER DUGAR v. STATE OF LOUISIANA.

PER CURIAM:

Defendant's sentence of death is reduced to a term of life imprisonment at hard labor without benefit of probation, parole or suspension of sentence. The defendant was 15 years old at the time he committed this crime and the state may not constitutionally enforce his sentence of death. Thompson v. Oklahoma, 487 U.S. 815, 108 S.Ct. 2687, 101 L.Ed.2d 702 (1988); State v. Stone, 535 So.2d 362 (La. 1988). The defendant's present appeal in this Court is accordingly transferred to the Court of Appeal, Third Circuit, for consideration.
