MANSFIELD v. FASSETT

A police court record, containing a clerical error, does not entitle a party to a mandamus for the issue of an execution to which he would not be entitled on a correction of the error.

DOE, C. J.

Whether the entry charging the trustee subject to the previous suit does or does not correctly express the order intended to be made, this petition cannot be maintained. Whatever might be done for the correction of a clerical error by an amendment of the record of the police court, the record containing such an error would be no cause for compelling that court to give the plaintiff an execution to which, upon a correction of the error, he would not be entitled.

Petition denied.

All concurred.
