On Rehearing.
It is insisted by appellant, in his application for rehearing, that Circuit and Inferior Courts Rule 35, applies exclusively to civil actions and has no bearing upon criminal procedure. In this connection appellant cites no authority. Mere reference to any of the following decisions will disclose that this insistence is erroneous and untenable, and that rule 35, supra, applies to state cases as well as to civil: Ex parte Knight, 61 Ala. 482 ; Hubbard v. State, 72 Ala. 164; Johnson v. State, 100 Ala. 55, 14 So. 627; Dentler v. State, 112 Ala. 71, 20 So. 592; McPherson v. State, 198 Ala. 5, 73 So. 387; Watts v. State, 204 Ala. 372, 86 So. 70 (headnote 1); Woodson v. State, 170 Ala. 87, 54 So. 191; Ratliff v. State, 212 Ala. 410, 102 So. 621 (headnote'8); Hughes v. State, 213 Ala. 555, 105 So. 664; Burkett v. State, 215 Ala. 453, 111 So. 34 (headnote 11); Hendrix v. State, 11 Ala. App. 207, 65 So. 682; Jones v. State, 13 Ala. App. 10, 68 So. 690 (headnote 10); Thomas v. State, 15 Ala. App. 146, 72 So. 686; Pounds v. State, 15 Ala. App. 223, 73 So. 127 (headnote 2); Houston v. State, 16 Ala. App. 421, 78 So. 415; Ray v. State, 16 Ala. App. 496, 79 So. 620; Chambers v. State, 17 Ala. App. 178, 84 So. 638; Bell v. State, 17 Ala. App. 399, 86 So. 139; Haswell v. State, 17 Ala. App. 519, 86 So. 170 (headnote 2); Reaves v. State, 18 Ala. App. 5, 87 So. 705 (headnote 2); McMickens v. State, 18 Ala. App. 36, 88 So. 342; James v. State, 18 Ala. App. 618, 92 So. 909; Martin v. State, 19 Ala. App. 251, 96 So. 734; Webb v. State, 19 Ala. App. 359, 97 So. 246.
The foregoing authorities show conclusively that this insistence of appellant is not well taken and cannot be sustained. Other insistences in the application for rehearing are also without merit. The points of decision in*264volved have each had the consideration of this court in the opinion first rendered.
Application for rehearing overruled.
