PATTERSON, Judge. In Dial v. State, 680 So.2d 1002 (Ala.Cr.App. 1996), we reviewed Kenneth Winston Dial's appeal from the circuit court's summary denial of his Rule 32, Ala.R.Crim.P. petition for post-conviction relief. We remanded the case to the trial court and directed it to enter specific findings of fact regarding the issue whether the trial court's jury instructions improperly stated that the judge believed that Dial was guilty.
