Marengo County v. Lyles

PER CURIAM. It is the opinion of the court that the plaintiff has misconceived his remedy. He should first have presented his claim to the court of county commissioners, asking for the payment thereof; and upon their refusal to allow his said claim, he should then have asked for a mandamus, directed to said court of county commissioners, commanding them to make such appropriation as would be just and proper in the premises. Reversed and rendered.
