Head Matter:
John M. POLLARD v. RHODE ISLAND DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION et al.
No. 82-401-M.P.
Supreme Court of Rhode Island.
June 3, 1983.
Keven A. McKenna, Providence, for petitioner.
Stephen F. Mullen, Providence, for respondent.

Opinion:
ORDER
The petitioner herein seeks certiorari to review a District Court judgment upholding the Registrar's suspension of his license and registration. In response to the petition, the Registrar moves that the case be returned to the District Court for a new hearing, apparently acknowledging that the District Court judge mistakenly treated petitioner's appeal as a safety responsibility matter. After carefully reviewing the papers submitted to us, we believe that such a remand is appropriate.
Accordingly, the petition for writ of cer-tiorari is granted, the judgment of the District Court is quashed, and this case is remanded to the District Court for a new hearing.
