What is the legal test for obtaining a writ of certiorari?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Samuels v. Council of College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan, 1966 CanLII 352 (SK QB):

As the application for writs of certiorari has failed it is not necessary for me to consider further the general rule of practice set forth in Re Wilfong; Cathcart v. Lowery, supra, or to deal with amending the notice of motion by adding therein the words “without the actual issuance of a writ;” or to deal further with the matter of dispensing with security.
