Mandamus
Mandamus is a judicial remedy in the form of an order from a superior court, to any government subordinate court, corporation, or public authority—to do (or forbear from doing) some specific act which that body is obliged under law to do (or refrain from doing)—and which is in the nature of public duty, and in certain cases one of a statutory duty. It cannot be issued to compel an authority to do something against statutory provision. For example, it cannot be used to force a lower court to reject or authorize applications that have been made, but if the court refuses to rule one way or the other then a mandamus can be used to order the court to rule on the applications.
Mandamus may be a command to do an administrative action or not to take a particular action, and it is supplemented by legal rights. In the American legal system it must be a judicially enforceable and legally protected right before one suffering a grievance can ask for a mandamus. A person can be said to be aggrieved only when he is denied a legal right by someone who has a legal duty to do something and abstains from doing it.

2 Many Times
by: BodyjarWhat group are you supposed to be in
You need a direction, a fashion, a change
Try to show everyone you're different
You give me your reasons
Then still stay the same
You've been in this scene for as long as me
Just say fuck to your peers
And say what you mean
I can't believe that you just stand there
And say all the things that you've said before
Put on an act and all your friends will make believe
You won't open your eyes It's so hard to perceive
It's not fair you had to wait in line
You'll have to pay 2 many times
When you're wrong you'll find
It's been too many times too many
Reason don't need a reason
