1982State v. Walters, 408 So.2d 1337 (La.1982) permitted discovery of the names and addresses of the state's witnesses because C.Cr.P. art. 723 does not prohibit the same. *452 This writer is of the opinion that it is wrong to permit discovery of this information because the defense is not entitled to such information for any reason.
