the case may appear to him to require, for compelling
the appearance of the challenger or supposed challenger,
a pretension mandate, on an accersition mandate.

he gives notice to the informant, and at the same
time he delivers to him an accersition mandate, ordering his appearance also.

of falsity on the part of the information for the purpose
