In my opinion, Guy Martin, American Integrity Insurance Company, and Roger McCullough were able to present the legal issue that they wanted this Court to address as effectively by this petition for writ of mandamus as they could have by an appeal. I vote to deny the writ, using the standard of review that I must use when determining whether to issue a writ of mandamus, just as I would have voted to affirm the judgment of the trial court on the issue of whether Martin, American Integrity, and McCullough were entitled to a set-off, as a matter of law, of the amount paid in settlement by Lindsey, Insurance Marketers, and Atlantic American if that issue had been presented to this Court by an appeal. *Page 1386
