OPINION TEXT STARTS HERE
Mandamus on the relation of William H. Klug against Oramel B. Fuller, Auditor General of the State of Michigan. Writ denied.
Argued before STONE, C. J., and KUHN, OSTRANDER, BIRD, MOORE, STEERE, and BROOKE, JJ. Charles Bowles, of Detroit, for relator.
Grant Fellows, Atty. Gen., and Leland W. Carr, Asst. Atty. Gen., for respondent.
Mandamus is sought to compel the respondent to approve a plat of certain land situated in the township of Hamtramck, Wayne county. The petition alleges that the plat was executed in due form, and that the treasurer of the county had attached thereto his certificate to the effect that all taxes for the five years preceding have been paid, and that the township board approved the plat; but, when submitted to the respondent, he declined to approve it, assigning as a reason for his action that it had not been approved by the board of auditors of Wayne county.
The proceedings in question are governed by sections 3372, 3373, of the Complied Laws of 1897, as amended by Act 251 of the Public Acts of 1915, and so much of the first section is here set forth as is necessary for an understanding of the question involved.
