Answer: Literally speaking, quo-warranto means “by what authority or warrant”
- The court issues a quo warranto when it is necessary to investigate the legitimacy of an individual’s claim to a public position
- It can be claimed that quo warranto precludes an individual from illegally seizing public office
- The court will issue a writ of quo warranto if it determines that an individual is holding an office despite being ineligible to do so
