Supreme Court of Alabama January 23, 1998

State v. Grantland, 709 So. 2d 1317 (Ala. 1998)

1998 Ala. LEXIS 15; 1998 WL 21978

Hooper, Maddox, Shores, Kennedy, Butts

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We quash the writ as having been improvidently granted. In doing so, we do not wish to be understood as suggesting that the State should be permitted to use the writ of mandamus as a substitute for an appeal in a case where an appeal is not permitted. Ex parte Cannon, 369 So.2d 32, 33 (Ala. 1978).

WRIT QUASHED AS IMPROVIDENTLY GRANTED.

HOOPER, C.J., and MADDOX, SHORES, KENNEDY, and BUTTS, JJ., concur.
