Supreme Court of Alabama

Ex Parte Emiliano Rodriguez Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the Court of Criminal Appeals

January 13, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama denied the petition for a writ of certiorari without an opinion. Chief Justice Parker, dissenting, would have granted review to examine whether requiring trial witnesses to wear masks violated the defendant's confrontation right and whether any infringement could be justified during a public-health emergency.
