In re James Luther STROUD v. STATE of Alabama. Ex Parte James Luther Stroud.
    SC 1402.
    Supreme Court of Alabama.
    Jan. 2, 1976.
    Ian F. Gaston, Mobile, for petitioner.
    William J. Baxley, Atty. Gen., and David W. Clark, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State, opposed.
   JONES, Justice.

On preliminary examination, the petition for writ of certiorari to the Court of Criminal Appeals, 56 Ala.App. 692, 325 So.2d 200, was granted. Upon further consideration, we hold that the writ was improvidently granted and is due to be quashed notwithstanding the able argument of petitioner’s counsel who did not represent him at nisi prius.

Writ of certiorari quashed.

HEFLIN, C. J., and MERRILL, MADDOX and SHORES, JJ-, concur.
