Judge Madeleine M. Landrieu
_JjOn December 9, 2015, a jury returned a verdict finding Kenneth Halley and John Chambers each guilty of the April 5, 2005 second degree murder of Joseph Lucien. Although jointly tried, each defendant has filed a separate appeal.1 After the disposition of post-trial motions filed by Mr. Halley and after the expiration of all legal delays, Mr. Halley was sentenced to life imprisonment without the benefit of parole, probation or suspension of sentence. It is from this conviction and sentence that Mr. Halley now appeals.
