   ORDER

Before LIVELY, BOYCE F. MARTIN and KRUPANSKY, Circuit Judges.

The court has for consideration petitions for mandamus and prohibition against Bankruptcy Judge John F. Ray, Jr. of the Northern District of Ohio filed by the petitioners. On October 1, 1982 Judge Gilbert S. Merritt of this court ordered the inter-venor in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in the Northern District of Ohio, First National Bank of Boston, to brief the issues of the personal jurisdiction and alleged due process violations raised by the petitioners in their application for a stay in this court. Thereafter the intervenor First National Bank of Boston filed its brief and the petitioners filed a response thereto.

Upon consideration of the petition, the brief and the response thereto and other papers filed in connection therewith the court concludes that the issues raised herein, though important, are not of such magnitude as to justify granting the extraordinary relief of mandamus or prohibition. These issues can be reached by appeal, and mandamus or prohibition should never be used as a substitute for appeal.

The petitions for mandamus and prohibition and the motion for stay of the orders of the Bankruptcy Court are all denied.
