SMITH, Vice Presiding Judge,
Dissenting.
1 The majority has set forth an erudite and accurate analysis of this Court's jurisdictional restraints. However, I find that whether or not a stay is an appropriate exercise of this Court's authority under 22 0.8. 2011, § 1001.1., I would grant a stay to avoid irreparable harm as the appellants face imminent execution. I would do so in consideration of the appellants' rights, to avoid the possibility of a miscarriage of justice, and in comity with the Supreme Court's request for time to resolve the issues pending before it.
T2 I am authorized to state that Judge Charles Johnson joins me in this dissent.
