The opinion

GALLAGHER, Associate Judge

(concurring) :

I concur with the court’s opinion in this case with one reservation. I do not think the trial court in a routine case 1 should consider that the law on the production of witness lists is now the same as if it were provided for by court rule. Until such time as there is adopted a Rule on the question I think an exercise of discretion to grant the witness list should be reserved for the unusual case. I say this simply because the fact is we do not now have a Rule authorizing it.

. I believe the facts in this case are not at all routine.
