1. “"The State argues that the Court of Criminal Appeals erred in reaching the issue of whether the indictment properly charged Pool because, it argues, Pool did not object to the indictment except in a tardy motion and the trial judge never saw or ruled upon that motion. The record shows otherwise. Petitioner's motion was brought to the trial judge's attention at a motion hearing prior to opening arguments; the State never made any objection based on a contention that this motion was 'late'; the trial judge and both attorneys discussed this motion and the issues it raised, and their discussion took up 17 pages of the transcript. Thereafter, the trial judge clearly ruled that he was going to allow the State to proceed under § 13A-12-212 . The State's argument on this point is not well taken."”
