5 Rob. 161
State v. Judge of Court of Probates

Opinion of the Court

Bullard, J.

The rule in this case must be discharged. The Judge of the Court of Probates has rendered a judgment, refusing to homologate the proceedings of a family-meeting. We cannot, by mandamus, order him to reverse his own judgment and give a different one, because we cannot enforce such an order.

Rule discharged.
