Louisiana Court of Appeal August 25, 1981, No. 14593 (Lattier v. Department of Public Safety)

MARVIN, Judge.

Lattier was adjudged an habitual offender under LRS 32:1472 before Act 347 of *8101979, amending LRS 32:1479, became effective. This amendment requires an habitual offender to complete the 5-year suspension before becoming eligible for driving privileges.

The trial court ruled that the amendment would not be applied retroactively and allowed Lattier restricted driving privileges.
