Writ Denied in District Court Mandamus Case
In a district court decision by Judge Grimes the mandamus writ against Overfelder & Co. was denied. The opinion holds mandamus cannot compel an officer to perform duties before entering office and cannot be used to foresee or enforce anticipated omissions. The court notes the writ is not granted in anticipation of an omission and affirms that a relator must show actual default in a legal duty due. The county commissioners are praised for clear, lucid presentation of the case.
