1Opinion of the CourtBarney, J.

This is a petition for a writ of certiorari. It relates tó a so-called “reasonableness” hearing held in district court in connection with a charge of driving while intoxicated. The case is State of Vermont v. Ellis James Flanders, docket number 1886-70 Rcr, in the Rutland Circuit of the District Court. Such a hearing is called for by 23 V.S.A. § 1205. No right of appellate review is provided, which accounts for the resort to certiorari. State v. Muzzy, 124 Vt. 222, 225, 202 A.2d 267 (1964); Royalton College v. State Bd. of Education, 127 Vt. 436, 438, 251 A.2d 498 (1969).
