by James Lambert High (Author)

A Treatise On Extraordinary Legal Remedies: Embracing Mandamus, Quo Warranto, And Prohibition (1874) is a comprehensive guide to three legal remedies that are used in extraordinary circumstances. Written by James Lambert High, a lawyer and legal scholar, the book covers the legal principles, procedures, and precedents related to mandamus, quo warranto, and prohibition. Mandamus is a writ that compels a public official or entity to perform a duty that is required by law. Quo warranto is a legal action that challenges the right of an individual or entity to hold public office or exercise a particular power or privilege. Prohibition is a writ that prohibits a court or other authority from taking a particular action. The book provides detailed explanations of each remedy, including their history, purpose, and scope. It also includes case studies and examples to illustrate how these remedies have been used in practice. A Treatise On Extraordinary Legal Remedies is a valuable resource for lawyers, judges, and legal scholars who are interested in the history and application of these important legal tools.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
