Opinion
The extraordinary remedy of mandamus will lie only to compel the performance of a ministerial act and only when there exists a clear legal right to the relief sought (see Matter of Legal Aid Socy. of Sullivan County v Scheinman, 53 NY2d 12, 16 [1981]). The petitioner has failed to demonstrate a clear legal right to the relief sought (see People v Rodriguez, 95 NY2d 497, 501-502 [2000]). Rivera, J.P., Skelos, Santucci and Leventhal, JJ., concur.
