Opinion of the Court

MADDOX, FAULKNER, JONES, SHORES, EMBRY and BEATTY, JJ., concur. TORBERT, C. J., and ALMON, J., dissent.

Dissenting Opinion

ALMON, Justice

(dissenting).

I most respectfully dissent from quashing the writ. I think the Court should address the issue of whether the Court of Civil Appeals has misapplied the long standing ore tenus rule.

TORBERT, C. J., concurs.
