Abstract：
We discuss the suppression of the decay of heavy lepton τ into πv_τ,by assuming that τ and/or v_τ carry spin 3/2. For the case of spin 3/2 T and spin 1/2 v_τ, using the weak current ψ_μ^(τ)(a+b_^γ5)Ψ^(v_τ)we find that the πv_τ decay channel relative to the v_τv_ll^-channel is suppressed 12/5 times, while other decay channels are not changed appreciably. △R=σ（e⁺e^-→τ⁺τ^-）/σ（e⁺e^-→μ⁺μ^-） is also discussed.
