UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT DECISIONS ON-LINE

Mandamus will not lie to control the district court upon a jurisdictional question when other modes of reviewing its decision (writ of error or certiorari) are provided by statute.

This rule obtains even though the decision complained of be manifestly incorrect and though a direct review by mandamus might avert great inconvenience and expense. Ex parte Harding, 219 U. S. 363, explained and followed.

So held where the object of the application was to require the District Court for the Northern District of New York to remand a case removed from a court of the State of New Hampshire.

Rule discharged.

The facts are stated in the opinion.
