1Opinion of the Court

WISDOM, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from an order of the Honorable Orma R. Smith, District Judge for the Northern District of Mississippi, denying the motion of Marvin Wooten to quash a subpoena duces tec-um with which he had been served. Fears v. Burris Mfg. Co., 1969, 48 F.R. D. 91. The appeal turns on the extent to which the principles expressed in Carr v. Monroe Mfg. Co., 5 Cir. 1970, 431 F.2d 384, 1 should be regarded as applicable to the facts here presented. We regard Carr as controlling in this case and therefore affirm the district court’s order.
