    In the Matter of Draxel Clarke, Respondent, v Danny K. Chun, as Justice of the Supreme Court, Kings County, Respondent.
    [28 NYS3d 892]
   Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 in the nature of mandamus to compel the respondent Danny K. Chun, a Justice of the Supreme Court, Kings County, to provide the petitioner with grand jury minutes in connection with his ongoing prosecution by the New York State Attorney General under Kings County indictment No. 9324/14, and application by the petitioner for poor person relief.

Ordered that the application for poor person relief is granted to the extent that the filing fee imposed by CPLR 8022 (b) is waived, and the application is otherwise denied; and it is further,

Adjudged that the petition is denied and the proceeding is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

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 has failed to demonstrate a clear legal right to the relief sought.

Rivera, J.P., Dillon, Dickerson and Chambers, JJ., concur.
