CHESEBRO vs. CIRCUIT JUDGE (Kent),
    70 M., 650.
   To compel entry of a final decree in a chancery suit.

Denied April 17, 1888.

It did not satisfactorily appear that relator had moved the court below, prior to filing his application for the writ.

Held, that such a motion is an essential prerequisite to the relief sought.

It further appeared that the judge was willing to enter the decree. Held, that the court will not enter into a consideration of the merits of the issues involved in a chancery case upon application for mandamus.
