Text: ¶ 57. The decision to review vel non, a decision of the Court of Appeals is controlled by Mississippi Rule of Appellate Procedure 17. M.R.A.P. 17(a) unequivocally declares, [s]uccessive review of a decision of the Court of Appeals by the Supreme Court will ordinarily be granted only for the purpose of resolving substantial questions of law for general significance. Review will ordinarily be limited to: 1) cases in which it appears that the Court of Appeals has rendered a decision which is in conflict with a prior decision of the Court of Appeals or published Supreme Court decision; 2) cases in which it appears that the Court of Appeals has not considered a controlling constitutional provision; 3) cases which should have been decided by the Supreme Court because: i) the statute or these rules require decision by the Supreme Court, or ii) they involve fundamental issues of broad public importance requiring determination by the Supreme Court.
