Law Gives Governor the Best of the Argument
A legal debate centers on whether a governor may issue writs of mandamus against state officers or district judges. Some say Article 946 of revised statutes allows mandamus against any officer except the governor, while others reference Kentucky rulings. The issue touches on how a Governor can act when officials fail to perform duties and whether charges should be preferred in regular process. The discussion notes a precedent where a governor was mandamused in Kentucky, but asserts Texas law requires proceeding through established channels.
