    Ex parte Bruce PEARSON. (In re Bruce Pearson v. State of Alabama).
    1061172.
    Supreme Court of Alabama.
    Sept. 21, 2007.
    Bruce Pearson, pro se.
    Submitted on petitioner’s brief only.
   SMITH, Justice.

We hereby suspend the provisions of Rule 39(g) and (h), Ala. R.App. P., allowing the petitioner and the respondent to file a brief and to request oral argument, and we summarily grant the writ. In an opinion released today, this Court overrules Wells v. State, 941 So.2d 1008 (Ala.Crim.App.2005), to the extent that it created a limitation on a trial court’s jurisdiction to consider successive motions filed pursuant to Ala.Code 1975, § 13A-5-9.1. See Ex parte Gunn, [Ms. 1051754, Sept. 21, 2007] — So.2d - (Ala.2007). The Court of Criminal Appeals relied solely on Wells in affirming the trial court’s judgment. Therefore, we reverse the judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeals and remand the case for proceedings consistent with Gunn.

WRIT GRANTED; REVERSED AND REMANDED.

COBB, C.J., and SEE, LYONS, WOODALL, BOLIN, PARKER, and MURDOCK, JJ., concur.

STUART, J., concurs specially.

See my writing in Ex parte Gunn, [Ms. 1051754, Sept. 21, 2007] — So.2d -, -(Ala.2007).
