Ex Parte George Willie Pollard. (in Re State of Alabama v. George Willie Pollard)

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama quashed Pollard's writ of certiorari without addressing the merits of the suppression issue or definitively resolving the preservation question. The court expressly stated that quashing the writ should not be understood as approving all of the intermediate appellate court's language, reasoning, or legal statements. Shaw, Justice, dissenting, would have revisited the governing preservation rule and declined to quash the writ.
