Opinion of the Court
The demurrer to the petition for writ of mandamus to require reversal of the respondents’ action on the petitioner’s application and examination was rightly sustained. The respondents having acted, mandamus is not an appropriate remedy. Howe v. Attorney Gen. 325 Mass. 268, 270, and cases cited. Harding v. Commissioner of Ins. 352 Mass. 478, 480.
Order sustaining demurrer affirmed.
