    In the Matter of De Andre Williams, Petitioner, v Barbara Zambelli et al., Respondents.
    [947 NYS2d 889]
   The extraordinary remedy of mandamus will lie only to compel the performance of a ministerial act, and only where there exists a clear legal right to the relief sought (see Matter of Legal Aid Socy. of Sullivan County v Scheinman, 53 NY2d 12, 16 [1981]). The petitioner failed to demonstrate a clear legal right to the relief sought. Rivera, J.P., Florio, Chambers and Cohen, JJ., concur.
