Walker v. State

HOUSTON, Justice. In denying the writ, this Court should not be understood as agreeing with the rationale of the Court of Criminal Appeals. The trial court’s ruling on the defendant’s objection and motion for mistrial was correct under independent state law evidentiary principles. See, e.g., Shoemaker v. State, 481 So.2d 409 (Ala.Crim.App.1985). WRIT DENIED. HORNSBY, C. J., and ALMON, INGRAM, and BUTTS, JJ., concur.
