Rather, the petition seeks to compel respondents to perform discretionary acts, for which mandamus is unavailable (see Matter of Williamsburg Independent People, Inc. v. Tierney, 91 A.D.3d 538, 538, 938 N.Y.S.2d 5 [1st Dept. 2012]; see alsoAnonymous v. Commissioner of Health, 21 A.D.3d 841, 842, 801 N.Y.S.2d 302 [1st Dept. 2005] ). Additionally, other adequate remedies at law exist to obtain the relief sought (see Matter of Patel v. Shah, 115 A.D.3d 559, 559–560, 982 N.Y.S.2d 117 [1st Dept. 2014], lv. denied 23 N.Y.3d 907, 2014 WL 2922284 [2014] ; see also Matter of Kyle v.
