    In the Matter of Susan Frasca, Petitioner, v Saverio J. Fierro et al., Respondents.
    [616 NYS2d 984]
   —Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 in the nature of mandamus, inter alia, to direct the respondent Justice to execute a proposed order in a matrimonial action, and to return the case to the Supreme Court, Suffolk County, for reassignment to another Justice.

Upon the petition and papers filed in support of the proceeding, and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is

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 when there exists a clear legal right to the relief sought (see, Matter of Legal Aid Socy. v Scheinman, 53 NY2d 12, 16). The petitioner here has failed to demonstrate a clear legal right to the relief sought. Mangano, P. J., Thompson, Bracken, Rosenblatt, and Miller, JJ., concur.
