    In the Matter of Ronald Perser, Petitioner, v Susan Cacace, Respondent.
    [978 NYS2d 684]
   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., Balkin, Hall and Sgroi, JJ, concur.
