ROONEY, Chief Justice.

After appellant Carlson, Mayor of Newcastle, discharged appellee Snider from the position of Chief of Police, the majority of the City Council (those appellees named as Council members) directed the Mayor to specify reasons for the discharge and to reinstate appellee Snider as Chief of Police pending the hearing; they also appointed a hearing officer to conduct a hearing to determine whether or not there was cause for the discharge. Appellant Carlson refused to specify charges or reinstate appel-lee Snider. However, the Council continued to pay his salary.
