1Opinion of the Court

ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI

WALLER, Chief Justice,

for the Court:

¶ 1. Charles Means brought a post-conviction-relief petition to vacate his banishment order and the revocation of the suspension of his sentence for violating it. The trial court summarily dismissed *440Means’s petition, and the Court of Appeals affirmed. We granted Means’s petition for certiorari to review the propriety of his banishment.

State, 437 So.2d 1218 (Miss.1983), so we reverse and remand.
