Merson v. Muir

CLAY, Commissioner.

This is a petition for relief in the nature of mandamus brought under RCA 1.420. The purpose of the proceeding is to have this Court order the police judge of the City of Louisville to docket for trial certain charges against the petitioners under which they have heretofore been convicted and fined. The claim is made that petitioners • were never given a trial.

It has long been the established rule that this Court will not exercise its jurisdiction in a proceeding of this nature if the petitioner has an adequate remedy elsewhere. McDonald v. De Haven, 192 Ky. 679, 234 S.W.…
