ARGUED JULY 9, 1974.

DECIDED OCTOBER 8, 1974.

Certiorari to the Court of Appeals of Georgia — 131 Ga. App. 667 ( 206 S.E.2d 662).

Hinson McAuliffe, Solicitor, Thomas R. Moran, Assistant Solicitor, for appellant.

Glenn Zell, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Upon further consideration of this case we have come to the conclusion that in view of two United States Supreme Court decisions, Roaden v. Kentucky, 413 U.S. 496 ( 93 S.Ct. 2716, 37 L.Ed.2d 757), and Heller v. New York, 413 U.S. 483 ( 93 S.Ct. 2789, 37 L.Ed.2d 745), which set out the proper methods to be used in seizing films of this nature, this question now lacks sufficient gravity and importance. Therefore, the writ of certiorari was improvidently granted and accordingly the case is dismissed.

Appeal dismissed. All the Justices concur.

ARGUED JULY 9, 1974 — DECIDED OCTOBER 8, 1974.
