        "text": "Per Curiam.\nThe petitioner, Gregory Lamont Childress, filed a motion for an expedited appeal to hear the issue presented in his Petition for a Writ of Mandamus. The State does not contest this motion, and accordingly it is granted.\nThe petitioner also filed a motion for a writ of mandamus asking us to compel Judge Marion A. Humphrey of the Pulaski County Circuit Court to set bail pending his trial on criminal charges. In Henley v. Taylor, 324 Ark. 114, 918 S.W.2d 713 (1996), we held that certiorari is the proper remedy to review a circuit court\u2019s determination of the availability of bail. Thus, we will treat Childress\u2019s petition for a writ of mandamus as a petition for a writ of certiorari.\nThe Arkansas Constitution declares that \u201cAll persons shall, before conviction, be bailable by sufficient sureties, except for capital offenses, when the proof is evident or the presumption is great.\u201d Ark. Const., art. 2, \u00a7 8. Accordingly, we grant the Childress\u2019s petition for a writ of certiorari, and direct Judge Humphrey to hold a hearing and to set a reasonable bond.\nMotion for Expedited Appeal granted.\nPetition for a Writ of Certiorari granted.\nCorbin, would deny.",
