## Opinion text

John I. Purtle, concurring in part, dissenting in part. I concur in the result as to the attorney’s fee and the granting of the prosecuting attorney’s request to be relieved. However, I would decide the other matters presented rather than send them back for a stipulation of disputed facts. After all, we know what the dispute is about, and it will be back up here as soon as the facts are stipulated and the court rules again on the disputed items.
