State ex rel. Vitoratos v. Whiddon

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

If, as relator contends, respondent has property belonging to relator, relator may recover such property in an action of replevin. In the exercise of its discretion, this court will ordinarily refuse a writ of mandamus where relator has an adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law. State, ex rel. Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass Co., v. Industrial Commission, 162 Ohio St. 302.

Writ denied.

Taft, C. J., Zimmerman, Matthias, O’Neill, Herbert, Schneider and Brown, JJ., concur.
