HOUSTON, Justice.
In quashing this writ, we must emphasize that the Civil Service Act creating the Civil Service Board of the City of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, does not mandate pre-hearing discovery, but that such discovery upon request of the parties is a matter of discretion with the Board, subject to judicial review.
WRIT QUASHED AS IMPROVIDENTLY GRANTED.
