1Opinion of the Court
FOSTER, Justice.
On certiorari to the Court of Appeals, we adhere to the rule applicable- to common-law certiorari, that only questions of law will be considered. But that includes the question of whether we agree with the application of the law to the facts as found and recited by that court. Reichert Milling Co. v. George, 230 Ala. 589, 162 So. 402, and cases there cited, Hood v. State, 230 Ala. 343, 162 So. 543, and we only consider the questions which were treated by the Court of Appeals.
But when there is no dispute about the facts, we examine the record for a more complete understanding…
