Appellate Court of Illinois April 24, 1956, Gen. 46,712 (People Ex Rel. Siegal v. Griffin)

JUDGE SCHWARTZ

delivered the opinion of the court.

The relators, sergeants of police of the Village of Skokie, brought this mandamus suit to compel the appointment of one of them to fill a vacancy which, it is charged, exists in the position of lieutenant of police. The two relators are the only remaining persons on a civil service promotional list for that position.
