564 So. 2d 976; 1990 Ala. LEXIS 524; 1990 WL 120272
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Ex parte Bowen Development & Timber Co.
Opinion of the Court
By denying the petition for writ of certio-rari we do not indicate approval of the language used by the Court of Civil Appeals that suggests a new trial must be ordered only if juror misconduct indicates a “distinct possibility” that the juror reached his decision because of that misconduct. We adhere to the rule articulated in Coots v. Isbell, 552 So.2d 139 (Ala. 1989).
WRIT DENIED.
