N.D. Cent. Code § 32-34-03
Current through 2023 Legislative Sessions
The writ may be either alternative or peremptory. The alternative writ must state generally the allegation against the party to whom it is directed and must command such party immediately upon the receipt of the writ, or at some other specified time, to do the act required to be performed or to show cause before the court at a specified time and place why the party has not done such act. The peremptory writ must be in a similar form except that the words requiring the party to show cause why the party has not obeyed the command must be omitted and a return day inserted.
