KINAHAN'S LL WHISKY. masters' summonses (not being summonses for time only) are to be entered in a printed list, and are to be heard in consecutive order. We question the advantage to the profession of this change. It will obviously put a stop to the convenient modifications enabling solicitors with several summonses to have them heard in succession. Another proposal, by way of enforcing the filing of affidavits used in the Common Law Chambers, is that an original affidavit shall not be used as evidence, except by leave of the judge. The effect of this will be, of course, that all affidavits to be used at judges' chambers will have to be filed before they are used instead of afterwards. This change will, it is to be feared, cause no little inconvenience in the case of affidavits sworn or arriving by post on the day on which they are to be used. Delay is inevitable in getting the copy examined, and thus the summons in the list at chambers may be passed by before the office copy can be obtained. We understand that an attempt is proposed to be made to meet this inconvenience by opening the office for filing affidavits at an earlier hour than at present. How far this will provide a remedy for the prospective inconvenience remains to be seen. Hayton v. Irwin (C.P.Div.) 138 Hall and County Bank, In re. Trotter's Claim (App.) Kimber, Ex parte. In re Thrift (App.).. 133 "Mary Hounsell," The (1879, 0. 83.) (Adm.Div.)............ 140 Queen, The v. Carden (Q.B.Div.). 133 Rawlins, In the Goods of (Prob.Div.)...................................................... 139 CURRENT TOPICS. THE COURT OF APPEAL on Wednesday last established a new practice for the Chancery Division with respect to the payment of costs of unauthorized proceedings. In the Court of Chancery the practice was that, where a solicitor had filed a bill without authority from the plaintiff, he should be condemned to pay the plaintiff's costs, but the plaintiff-who might have known nothing of the proceedings, and, at any rate, was not responsible for their institution, and had not been the means of bringing the defendant before the court-was condemned to pay the defendant's costs, and was left to his remedy against the solicitor who had pretended to act for him (Hood v. Phillips, 6 Beav. 176; Wade v. Stanley, 1 J. & W. 674; Tarbuck v. Woodcock, 6 Beav. 581). In a case before the Court of Appeal on Wednesday last (The Newbigginon-Sea Gas Company v. Armstrong) the court emphatically laid it down that the future practice of the Chancery Division should be to direct the solicitor who commenced the unauthorized proceedings to pay the costs both of the plaintiff and of the defendant, and that for this purpose the defendant should be served with notice of the application with reference to costs. IT WILL BE USEFUL for practitioners in the Chancery Division to know that a receiver appointed in an action does not cease to be a receiver by reason of a decree or judgment being made. It has been a common practice during many years for counsel, in drawing minutes of a proposed judgment, to insert a clause continuing the receiver. In the case of Cruse v. Smith, which was before the Court of Appeal at Lincoln's-inn on Wednesday last, it was sought to charge a solicitor with IT IS UNDERSTOOD that the rules under the Summary negligence in the conduct of an action, on the ground, Jurisdiction Act, 1879, have been drafted, and that as little delay as possible will be allowed to elapse before they are published. THE PREVALENT AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION has already given rise to numerous applications to the judges of the Chancery Division of the High Court by receivers of estates "in chancery" for permission to allow a reduction of rent to tenants, and in many cases directions have been given authorizing a considerable remission of rent, either for one or two quarters, or for a longer period. IT IS EXPECTED that the forthcoming rules under the Supreme Court of Judicature (Officers) Act, 1879, will contain some important modifications in the practice at judges' chambers. If rumour speaks correctly, the other things, amongst that in drawing up a judgment he had not provided for the continuance of the receiver. And this contention would appear to have had some plausibility, for, when the matter came before the Chief Clerk at chambers, he required the parties to take out a summons and to obtain an order to continue the receiver. The Court of Appeal, however, ruled that this was not necessary; that a receiver who has been appointed, as the Master of the Rolls termed it, as a "full receiver "-that is, not as an "interim receiver "-remains receiver until he is discharged, and is liable so long as his recognizance remains in force. The learned judge referred to a passage in the 4th edition of Seton on Decrees (p. 412), which runs as follows:-" It has been usual to continue the receiver at the hearing, but there appears to be no foundation for the notion that the powers and authority of a receiver cease at the hearing if not then continued ;" and he said |
