STATE OF LOUISIANA v. JAMES QUINNEY.

WRIT GRANTED AND MADE PEREMPTORY: The trial court erred in refusing to quash and dismiss the prosecution due to the unreasonable delay between entry of a plea of guilty and sentence, i.e., thirteen (13) years. The delay, in and of itself, was unreasonable and the record does not reflect any factors which would justify such a delay. See, State v. Milson, 458 So.2d 1037 (La.App. 3 Cir. 1984). The ruling of the trial court is reversed and it is divested of jurisdiction to sentence relator for the offense. La.C.Cr.P. art. 874; State v. McQueen, 308 So.2d 752 (La. 1975).
