GUTHRIE, Justice, Retired,
specially concurring.
I concur. Although it is my view that the issuance of a writ of certiorari should be reserved only for those most exceptional cases, in this case the factual situation justifies such action because there appears no other satisfactory remedy. If the court should abstain from consideration of this proceeding, it would be leaving an important question open and evading its duty of exercising “general supervisory control” of such courts. This would further serve to suggest to municipal judges that they hesitate to anticipate constitutional holdings which may impede and confuse the enforcement of municipal ordinances.
