Creasy v. Waller

For a writ of mandamus properly to issue, three conditions must be met. These conditions are clearly set forth in paragraph one of the syllabus in State, ex rel. Westchester, v. Bacon (1980), 61 Ohio St. 2d 42 [15 O.O.3d 53], where this court stated:

“In order to grant a writ of mandamus, a court must find that the relator has a clear legal right to the relief prayed for, that the respondent is under a clear legal duty to perform the requested act, and that relator has no plain and adequate remedy at law.
