CourtMissouri Supreme Court

M. B. Jonas and John M. Glover, for relator. W. C. Marshall, for respondent.

PER CURIAM.

The crowded condition of the docket of this court makes it necessary for us to adhere to the rule heretofore declared, that this court will not entertain applications for extraordinary remedies where the applications can be made to the circuit court in the first instance, unless the case is one of more than ordinary magnitude and importance. State v. County Court of Cooper County, 64 Mo. 170. An examination of the petition filed in this case shows that the circuit court has the power to issue the writ of certiorari prayed for, and the case is not one of more than ordinary importance. For these reasons the writ is denied. All concur.
