Correct Answer: By what authority (or) warrant
Solution : The correct answer is By what authority (or) warrant.
A writ of prerogative known as a quo warranto demands that the recipient prove their legitimacy before exercising any rights, powers, or franchises they claim to possess. Quo-warranto translates to by what authority or warrant. It is issued by the court to investigate whether a person's claim to a public office is legitimate. As a result, it stops someone from illegitimately usurping public office.
