DOROTHY RHOADES ET AL., APPELLANTS, v. NELAN J. SWEET, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS JUDGE OF THE MUNICIPAL COURT OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

The appellants were petitioners in a mandamus proceeding in the circuit court. The circuit judge denied the petition for a writ of mandamus and this appeal followed. The appellants have failed to show error because mandamus is a discretionary writ which will issue only upon the showing of a clear legal right in the relator to the performance of a ministerial act. See State ex rel. Eichenbaum v. Cochran, Fla. 1959, 114 So.2d 797. See also State ex rel. Long v. Carey, 121 Fla. 515, 164 So. 199 (1935).

Affirmed.
