Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

The writ may be either alternative or peremptory.
The alternative writ must state generally the allegation against the party to
whom it is directed, and command such party immediately after the receipt of
the writ, or at some other specified time, to do the act required to be
performed, or to show cause before the court at a specified time and place why
he has not done so. The peremptory writ must be in a similar form except that
the words requiring the party to show cause why he has not done as commanded
must be omitted, and a return day inserted.
