| | Jesson v. Davis |
 | | In light of our determination that the trial court properly dismissed the election contest, it is clear that the remaining issues, technically presented by way of writ petition, including Jesson' s request that his opponents' lawyers produce their law licenses, are moot. |
 | | For the same reason, we deny the request of Edie Bukewihge, another defeated candidate for the Republican nomination who has sided with Jesson in this litigation, that this court authorize subpeonas requiring the respective counsel for Governor Davis and Bill Simon to "produce their licenses" or be barred from the case. |
 | | It is absurd, however, to infer from the Legislature' s omission an entitlement to a formal trial of a contest in primary elections, regardless of how specious the ground. |
