    3(c) without regard to the circumstances of the particular case. In Yeomans v. State, 898 So. 2d 878 (Ala. Crim. App. 2004), for example, the defendant's four capital-murder charges were consolidated for trial even though the record did not indicate that the State ever filed a motion to consolidate the charges. This Court rejected the defendant's plain-error claim that he had not had the opportunity to be heard on the consolidation of the four charges. Among other things, this Court noted that the defendant "clearly had the opportunity to object to the consolidation and to be heard on any objection," but he had not objected and in fact had proceeded "as if the charges had been consolidated."
