BLUE, Chief Judge.

Dwight Ross seeks certiorari review of the circuit court's order that denied his petition for habeas corpus. Ross claimed that he was entitled to credit against his prison sentences when the overcrowding statutes in effect on the date of his offense were applied to current conditions. We grant the petition and quash the order, remanding for the trial court to reach the merits of Ross's claim.
