It is used principally for public purposes, and to enforce performance of public duties. It enforces, however, some private rights when they are withheld by public officers.It is a general rule that this writ is only to be issued where a party has no other specific remedy; and he must apply to the court without delay. the jurisdiction is altogether in the discretion of the court.

Anticipation
Anticipation, doing or taking a thing before the appointed time. For anticipation of an invention see PATENTS. A married woman may be restrained by the terms of a will or settlement from aliening, by way of anticipation, property settled to her separate use during coverture. Such a clause absolutely disables her from selling, mortgaging or dealing with the property in anticipation, but it does not apply to income actually accrued due, Hood Barrs v. Heriot, 1896 AC 174, and on the determination of the coverture the restraint is at an end, Tullett v. Armstrong, (1839) 4 My&Cr 377; 1 Beav 1. Such a provision is only effective during coverture; it cannot affect dispositions in favour of a man, Brandon v. Robinson, (1871) 18 Ves 429, or a feme sole. The restraint may be applied either to corpus or income, usually only to the latter; in a marriage settlement the wife's income is almost invariably directed to be paid to her, without power of anticipation.'
