Syllabus

<p>Mandamus (§ 14*) — Inspection of Official Books — Sufficiency of Application.</p> <p>The ex parte application of relators, defendants in a criminal casei for an order of inspection of official books and records, not supported by affidavit or other proof, was properly denied on its face, and furnishes no grounds for a writ of mandamus in the absence of evidence that such inspection was applied for by relators, and was denied by the custodian of the record.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
