Dotson v. State
Dotson v. State
256 Ga. 413; 350 S.E.2d 767
Dotson v. State
Opinion of the Court
This case involves a petition for a writ of mandamus to compel “the Criminal Court of Catoosa County” to dismiss charges against the petitioner, who is incarcerated in the State of Tennessee, in order to eliminate a detainer which Catoosa County has placed against him.
In view of the fact that this is a direct application to this Court for a writ of mandamus, this case is controlled by Brown v. Johnson, 251 Ga. 436 (306 SE2d 655) (1983), and the petition is therefore dismissed.
Petition for writ dismissed.
