Description
Petitioner Rex was charged with attempted second-degree murder, second-degree kidnapping and sexual assault on a child. He sought to compel the attendance of the alleged victim of the crime, a seven-year-old girl, at a preliminary hearing, but the respondent judge quashed the subpoena on the district attorneys motion. In this original proceeding in the nature of mandamus, the petitioner challenges that ruling. We issued a rule to show cause why we should not vacate the respondent judges order to quash the subpoena. Both parties have responded. We hold under the facts here that the respondent judge properly acted within his discretion and therefore we now discharge the rule.
