Goodrich v. Commonwealth , 210 Va. 295 ( 1969 )

Per Curiam.

The object of this proceeding is to prohibit the Circuit Court of Arlington County from trying the petitioner for a criminal offense. Aside from the fact that the Commonwealth rather than the judges of that court has been made the defendant, we cannot properly issue a writ of prohibition because no criminal proceeding is pending against the petitioner in the Circuit Court of Arlington County. Therefore, we do not reach the merits.

Writ denied.
