Summary

The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the county court’s denial of the petition for relief in the nature of certiorari, holding that the petitioner failed to demonstrate the absence or inadequacy of ordinary appellate remedies. The court emphasized that jurisdictional challenges are ordinarily addressed on appeal and that the petitioner had available interlocutory relief under G.L.c. 231, §118. No dissenting or concurring opinions were filed.
