Docket Number | No. 35392,35392 |
Citation | 147 N.E.2d 254,167 Ohio St. 210 |
Parties | , 4 O.O.2d 268 The STATE, ex rel. DE VILLE PHOTOGRAPHY, Inc., v. McCARROLL, Judge. |
Court | Ohio Supreme Court |
James Maxwell, Jr., Columbus, for relator.
George M. Davidson, Jr., Canton, for respondent.
Relator's prayer that respondent be required to render judgment 'in favor of the relator' in each of the 51 cases is an attempt to control the judicial discretion of the respondent judge, in that he is requested to render a particular judgment in each particular case.
Section 2731.03, Revised Code, provides that 'the writ of mandamus may require an inferior tribunal to exercise its judgment, or proceed to the discharge of any of its functions, but it cannot control judicial discretion.'
35 American Jurisprudence, 29, Section 258. See, also, 25 Ohio Jurisprudence, 1139, Section 182.
The demurrer to the petition is sustained and the writ denied.
Writ denied.
