Are Mandamus Orders initiated in court through WRIT OF SUMMONS, ORIGINATING SUMMONS, or a PETITION? Can you please tell me the difference between the three?
Mandamus Orders are typically initiated through a Petition.
Differences:
- Writ of Summons: Used to commence civil actions, requiring the defendant to appear in court.
- Originating Summons: For cases where the facts are not disputed and require a legal interpretation.
- Petition: Used for administrative or public law matters, such as seeking a Mandamus Order.
