State Ex Rel. Petti v. Goodwin-Raftery

ROBERT G. DOWD, JR., Judge.

Jerome A. Petti and Stanley F. Eber-sohl (collectively referred to as “Plaintiffs”) appeal from the trial court’s dismissal of their petition for writ of mandamus and declaratory judgment against Karen Goodwin-Raftery, the City Clerk for the City of Florissant, (“City Clerk”) and the City of Florissant (“Florissant”) (collectively referred to as “Defendants”). Because Plaintiffs’ petition failed to invoke principles of substantive law that, if proved, would entitle them to mandamus and declaratory relief, we affirm the trial court’s dismissal of Plaintiffs’ petition.
