Hickman v. Ryan
Superior Court of Delaware
Decided July 18, 1946PublishedCited by 3 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtTerry, J.
The petitioner herein seeks a writ of prohibition to compel the respondent, Leroy H. Ryan, Sr., a Justice of the Peace in and for Sussex County, to refrain from proceeding with an action brought before him against the petitioner under Paragraph 4560 of the Revised Code of Delaware 1935 relating to forcible detainer.
A rule to show cause was directed, and, since no return or answer has been filed, the case comes before me on a motion to dismiss the petition. All material and well pleaded averments are admitted. Knight v. Haley, 6 W. W. Harr. 366, 176 A. 461; 50 C. J. 705; 22 R. C. L., 31.
