Description
DAVIS, J. -- This is a case of original jurisdiction. On May 23, 1931, this Court issued an alternative writ of mandamus directed to the respondents, the city officials of the City of Clearwater, Florida, requiring them to revise the budget of said city for the fiscal year 1931-1932, and to include therein a sufficient tax levy with which to pay certain delinquent interest and certain principal and interest maturing during the fiscal year on certain bonds of the City of Clearwater. all of the bonds in question, as well as the coupons, were issued under authority of Chapter 10393, Laws of Florida, Acts of 1925. They were heretofore issued and sold by the city of Clearwater, and some of them are shown to be now owned and held by relators. A motion to quash the alternative writ has been filed by the respondents. A motion for the issuance of a peremptory writ has been filed by the relators. The question to be decided by the court on this state of the pleadings is whether or not the alternative writ shall be quashed or a peremptory writ issued.
