1st May 2004:  The terms “mandamus”, “prohibition” and “certiorari” are abolished in favour of “mandatory”, “prohibiting” and “quashing” orders. We thought this had already happened, following the Woolfe Reforms; shows how wrong we can be 🙂
Brought into effect by Civil Procedure (Modification of Supreme Court Act 1981) Order 2004. SI 2004/1033
