    MIDWEST BUSLINES, INC. et al v. Lee A. MUNSON, Judge et al
    81-213
    622 S.W. 2d 187
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered October 13, 1981
    
      
      Janis Richardson, Ark. Transportation Commission, for petitioners.
    
      Don A. Smith, for respondents.
   Per Curiam.

The application for a temporary writ of prohibition is denied, the petitioners having appeared by their counsel in the trial court without questioning its jurisdiction. We treat the petition, however, as a petition for a writ of certiorari to correct a proceeding that is erroneous on the face of the record and as to which no other adequate remedy appears. Bridges v. Ark. Motor Coaches, 256 Ark. 1054, 511 S.W. 2d 651 (1974). The trial judge was in error in issuing a temporary restraining order without setting an expeditious hearing to determine whether the temporary restraining order should be dissolved, as required by Civil Procedure Rule 65 (b). Various hearings to be conducted by the Arkansas Transportation Commission do not satisfy the requirements of the Rule just cited. Upon application of any party to the case the trial court is directed to hold a hearing within ten days to determine whether the temporary order should be continued in force or be dissolved.
