Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal State of Louisiana No. 26-K-511 STATE OF LOUISIANA versus JON ANDERSON IN RE JON ANDERSON APPLYING FOR SUPERVISORY WRIT FROM THE TWENTY-FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, PARISH OF JEFFERSON, STATE OF LOUISIANA, DIRECTED TO THE HONORABLE JACQUELINE F. MALONEY, DIVISION "D", No. 26-2419 November 03, 2026 Panel composed of Judges Susan M. Chehardy, Scott U. Schlegel, and Timothy S. Marcel WRIT DENIED In this pro se writ application, relator, Jon Andersen, seeks review of two district court rulings rendered on September 15, 2026, which denied his motion for a bill of particulars and his motion to quash the bill of information. For the following reasons, the writ application is denied on the showing made. On May 13, 2026, relator was charged by bill of information with forgery, in violation of La. R.S. 14:72 (count one); filing or maintaining false public records, in violation of La. R.S. 14:133 (count two); and forgery of a certificate of insurance or insurance card, in violation of La. R.S. 14:72.1.1(B)(1) (count three). Relator filed a motion for bill of particulars on August 20, 2026, and a motion to quash the bill of information on August 27, 2026. At a hearing on September 15, 2026, the district court denied both motions and noted 26-K-511 1 relator’s objection. Relator filed his notice of intent to apply for supervisory writs that same day. The district court set a return date of October 15, 2026, and relator filed this writ application on October 21, 2026, six days after the return date. Uniform Rules, Courts of Appeal, Rule 4-3, provides that an application “not filed in the Court of Appeal within the time so fixed or extended shall not be considered, in the absence of a showing that the delay in filing was not due to the applicant’s fault.” Relator’s application, filed six days after the return date, is untimely on its face. He contends that the delay was not due to his own fault, asserting that he was not served with notice of the signing of the order setting the return date and first learned of it from standby counsel on October 20, 2026. Relator attaches the clerk’s docket activity list to show that other motions in the record were noted as “signed and served,” while the order setting the return date bears no notation of service. Although the application was not filed within the return date fixed by the district court, we need not resolve whether its untimeliness is excused under Uniform Rules, Courts of Appeal, Rule 4-3, because the application fails on the showing made for the following reasons. A writ application “shall be accompanied by a complete record of all evidence upon which the judgment is based,” and this Court may deny writs “on the showing made” where the record is not furnished. La. C.Cr.P. art. 912.1(C)(1); see City of Baton Rouge v. Plain, 433 So.2d 710 (La. 1983). Here, relator provided the minute entry but not the transcript of the September 15, 2026 hearings, nor the police report admitted under seal as Joint Exhibit 1, which the district court reviewed in denying the motion for a bill of particulars. Without them, we cannot review the arguments made, the reasons for the rulings, or the exhibit the district court relied upon. See State v. Gaines, 16-386 (La. App. 5 Cir. 7/12/16); State v. Washington, 24-351, 2 26-K-511 2024 WL 3823427 (La. App. 5 Cir. 8/15/24); Uniform Rules, Courts of Appeal, Rule 4-5. Accordingly, the application is denied on the showing made.
