Opinion of the Court

In re: Stanley H. Jackson applying for writs of certiorari, mandamus and prohibition.

The application is denied. The defendant has an adequate remedy by appeal in the event of his conviction.

SUMMERS, J., dissents from the refusal to grant writs. It was error for the court to refuse to furnish relator with a certified copy of the transcript to serve as a basis for perfecting bills of exceptions, which could, in turn, support the allegations of this application.
