Certiorari to Court of Appeals.
Action by Mrs. Leila Minderhout against the Postal Telegraph-Cable Company. A judgment for plaintiff was affirmed by the Court of Appeals (71 So. 89), and defendant petitions for certiorari. Writ denied.
Cabaniss & Bowie, of Birmingham, for appellant.

While there has heretofore been some division among the members of the court as to questions that would be reviewed by this court upon certiorari to the Court of Appeals, the rule has been laid down in repeated decisions and applied in many instances, where the writ was denied and no opinion was prepared, to the effect that we would not review the finding of the Court of Appeals upon the facts, or in the application of the law to the facts.
