Supreme Court of Alabama.
February 28, 1986.

BEATTY, Justice.
This is a petition for a writ of mandamus to the Honorable Arthur J. Hanes, Jr., Judge of the 10th Judicial Circuit of Alabama. The petition seeks to have Judge Hanes rescind his order declaring that the state of Alabama has in personam jurisdiction of petitioner in certain actions pending in the trial court, and to have this Court order Judge Hanes to grant the petitioner's motion to quash service upon petitioner in those actions. The writ is denied.
After considering petitioner's motion, together with the briefs and arguments of counsel, and after consideration of the authorities, Judge Hanes filed an extensive order denying petitioner's motion. This Court has considered the applicable authorities, including the recent decision of this Court in Ex parte Newco Manufacturing Co., 481 So. 2d 867 (Ala.1985), and, having found that Judge Hanes's order complies with applicable law, adopts that order as its own. That order follows:
WRIT DENIED.
TORBERT, C.J., and FAULKNER, ALMON and SHORES, JJ., concur.
