Ex Parte Thomas
Supreme Court of Alabama
Ex Parte Thomas, 611 So. 2d 420 (Ala. 1992)
1992 WL 355530
Adams
Ex Parte Thomas
Opinion
The petition for writ of certiorari is denied.
In denying the petition for writ of certiorari, this Court does not wish to be understood as approving desultory voir dire
by either party — the defendant being responsible for following up on veniremembers' answers to the State's questions regarding their connections with criminal charges. Nor do we approve the dicta in the Court of Criminal Appeals' opinion regarding the defendant's right to require the State to enter into the record documents in its exclusive possession
purporting to show misconduct of three of the six challenged veniremembers. See Ex parte Thomas,
WRIT DENIED.
HORNSBY, C.J., and MADDOX, SHORES, HOUSTON, KENNEDY and INGRAM, JJ., concur.
