FAQ
(1) A party petitioning for a writ of mandamus or prohibition directed to a court must file the petition with the circuit clerk and serve it on all parties to the proceeding in the trial court. The party must also provide a copy to the trial-court judge.
You must show all of the following: That you have a clear right to relief. That there is an undisputed duty on the lower court. That there is no adequate remedy at law. That you asked the lower court act first.
The filing must include: The name of the petitioner. The relief sought in the petition. Presentation of the issue. Facts and evidence to explain and support the petition. Reasons for the issuance of the mandamus. Copies of any orders, opinions, or parts of the record, as necessary.
Yes, you can file the mandamus case in court yourself without a lawyer. Almost 90% of cases get resolved without a court hearing and hence it should be your first step. If needed, you can appear for a court hearing yourself (it's a simple one) or you can hire an attorney at that time.
These papers can be served by: Mailing them to the last known address provided. Handing them to the person. Emailing them to the most recent email address provided.
