illegal

Am getting the below error when trying to do a select through a Stored procedure in mysql.

Illegal mix of collations (latin1_general_cs,IMPLICIT) and (latin1_general_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '='

Any idea on what might be going wrong here?

The collation of the table is latin1_general_ci and that of the column in the where clause is latin1_general_cs

Thanks!
