The opinion

IN RE: Brown, Alfred; — Plaintiff(s); Applying for Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs; Parish of Jefferson 24th Judicial District Court Div. “E” Number 97-4711; to the Court of Appeal, Fifth Circuit, Number 98-KW-0896

Writ granted in part; otherwise denied. Because the terms of the statute under which relator was sentenced do not include a prohibition on parole, see R.S. 14:67, relator’s sentence is amended to delete, the prohibition. Relator’s parole eligibility is to be determined by the Department of Corrections pursuant to R.S. 15:574.4. St. Amant v. 19th J.D.C., 94-0567 (La.9/3/96), 678 So.2d 536 ; cf. State ex rel. Simmons v. Stalder, 93-1852 (La.1/26/96), 666 So.2d 661 . The district court is directed to make an entry in the minutes reflecting this change. In all other respects, the application is denied.
