Jurisdiction: Writ of Mandamus

Wylie v. State Fund [10/29/97] 1997 MTWCC 62 While the WCC has jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus in an appropriate matter relating to benefits, no writ will issue where claimant, who seeks to compel the Department of Labor to schedule a medical examination relating to his alleged deafness, has a plain and speedy remedy at law, to wit, a contested case hearing before the DOL, for which claimant has already filed.
