1Opinion of the Court
ROBERTSON, Presiding Judge.
This appeal arises out of the granting of summary judgment for the Department of Public Welfare of Bartholomew County (Department) in its action of mandamus to compel the Bartholomew County Council (Council) to modify its salary ordinances for the employees of the Department. The Council appeals on two grounds: (1) there is no subject-matter jurisdiction of the trial court, and (2) the order of mandate given by the trial court is contrary to law in that it commands the Council to perform a discretionary act.
We affirm.
