The opinion

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 prehearing 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.

HORNSBY, C.J., and JONES, SHORES and KENNEDY, JJ., concur.
