    The Court vacated the trial court's order granting defendants' motion to stay a civil action against them until the conclusion of a trial in a criminal case in which one defendant had been indicted for parallel allegations and remanded for further proceedings, because the trial court's exercise of discretion was based upon an erroneous view of the law.
