Law. Queen's Bench ruling on clerk offices and compensation
In a Rule heard before the Lords, Lexdale seeks mandamus to compel Shrewsbury town to hear his appeal over compensation for loss of office as common clerk. The court finds the Treasury rightly treated emoluments from related offices and discharges the Rule. A second case, Church Trustees of St Pancras, dismisses mandamus to audit accounts due to improper notice and timing, leaving accounts unsupervised.
