Legal defenses over charter petition for North Georgia Mineral Railway
The filing argues the state assembly must act before mandamus and that Secretary Cook need not consider the petition until after the 1916 session. It cites the August 11 1916 act and references letters from King & Spalding dated July 22 1915 and July 22 1916. The answer contends the act would violate Georgia’s constitution and invokes the Eleventh Amendment to bar suit, asserting state immunity from such mandamus.
