Summary

Brockington v. Rhodes — Opinion of the Court

Milburn, 170 Ohio St. 9, 11, 161 N.E.2d 891, 893. In the instant suit the Court of Common Pleas ruled that the appellant 'must not only establish that the act which he seeks to compel respondents to perform is one that they are constitutionally bound to perform by virtue of their offices, but also that he, the relator, has a clear right to have the duty enforced.' The court, without passing on the merits of the legal issues raised by the parties, found that the appellant had not established a clear legal right to the writ on the basis of all the evidence.
