Bacher v. District Court

This is an original proceeding seeking to invoke our jurisdiction under Colo. Const. Art. VI, Sec. 3 and C.A.R. 21(a). The petitioner seeks a writ in the nature of mandamus to compel the respondents, the District Court of Gunnison County, and the Honorable Fred Calhoun, a judge of that court, to vacate a March 18, 1974, order of the court denying the petitioner’s motion for a change of venue. We issued a rule to show cause why the requested relief should not be granted. The respondents have answered and the matter is at issue. We now make the rule absolute.
