Head Matter:
State ex rel. Keiffer Bros. vs. Judge Fifth District.

Opinion:
Clinton, J.
A mandamus cannot issue from the Circuit Court to compel a District Judge to grant a writ of injunction, attachment or sequestration. 28 An. 905; 31 An. 734; Manning's Cases, p. 318. Where a Judge refuses to grant such orders, the remedy of the applicant is either by appeal to this Court, or an application to the Supreme Court to compel the Judge, under its supervisory powers, to grant the proper order. Const. Art. 90; 32 An. 549; 36 An., Murray vs. Lazarus, Judge.
