Supreme Court of Louisiana January 26, 2001, Nos. 2000-KA-0093, 2000-KA-0095 (State v. Reaume)

|! CALOGERO, Chief Justice,

dissenting from the denial of the rehearing.

I would vote to grant the rehearing applications in these cases because I believe that the sentence a defendant can receive for solicitation of crime against nature is unconstitutionally excessive. The majority opinion in State v. Baxley, 94-2982, p. 10 (La.5/22/95), 656 So.
