Judge orders competency restoration for two defendants after evaluations
Summary
The presiding judge found Janae Landria and Jacoby Frazier not competent to stand trial based on recent psychiatric evaluations and ordered each sent to a restoration facility for up to 120 days; the court said it will await restoration reports before further proceedings.
The presiding judge found two defendants — Janae Landria and Jacoby Frazier — not competent to stand trial after reviewing psychiatric evaluations and ordered both sent to appropriate competency-restoration facilities for up to 120 days from arrival.
"I am going to find that miss Landrieu is not competent to stand trial," the judge stated after taking judicial notice of the court file and the competency report dated 07/10/2026. Later in the docket the judge repeated a similar finding for Jacoby Frazier after noting a 06/29/2026 evaluation.
The court directed that each defendant be transported to a facility equipped to provide restoration services and said it would await a report from the facility once restoration efforts have been completed. The judge framed the orders as time-limited: the restoration period for each defendant may not exceed 120 days from the day they arrive at the assigned facility.
Competency restoration orders pause adjudicative proceedings until a restoration report is returned to the court. The judge did not set further hearing dates in open court for the Landria matter at the time of the order and instructed counsel and jail staff on logistics for transport and notification.
