STATE EX REL. ROBERT LEE v. JOHN WHITLEY, WARDEN, LOUISIANA STATE PENITENTIARY.

Denied. Correction of relator's sentence to reflect hat it runs without parole eligibility does not support a presumption of vindictiveness under North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. 711, 89 S.Ct. 2072, 23 L. Ed.2d 656 (1969). The requirement of law that relator must serve his sentence without parole represents a "wholly logical, non-vindictive reason . . . .,'" negating any presumption of vindictiveness. State v. Lucas, 598 So.2d 338 (La. 1992) [quoting Texas v. McCullough, 475 U.S. 134, 140, 106 S.Ct. 976, 980, 89 L.Ed.2d 104 (1986)].
