If an appointment to a public office appears against law, which writ would be most correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Quo Warranto

The governing concept is the purpose of the five constitutional writs. Quo Warranto literally asks ‘by what authority?’ and allows a court to examine whether a person has the legal authority to occupy a public office. If the appointment does not satisfy the required law or qualifications, the court may question that person’s entitlement. Therefore option A is correct. Habeas Corpus concerns unlawful detention, Mandamus commands a public authority to perform a legal duty, and Prohibition stops a lower court or tribunal from exceeding its jurisdiction. Those writs do not specifically test title to public office.
