"If the society today allows wrongs to go unchallenged, the impression is
created that those wrongs have the approval of the majority." Rep. Barbara
Jordan, c. 1976
A Writ is a tool to make a record that citizen(s) object to high crimes.
(Granted, posted on wrong forum.)
I doubt that any local politicians could be identified as having done or failed
to do the job of public office to the degree which would warrant a Writ of
Mandamus, but it is good to be reminded of our seldom used tools for governing
ourselves. Thanks, Ed.
