Constitutional CodeCh. XXI Lawyers
§ 1. Lawyers, who

§. 1. Professional Lawyers, who.

Art. 1. By a Professional lawyer, or say a Law Practioner, understand a person who
for remuneration serves as Agent or say Helper or Helpmate to any other person
on the occasion of his being engaged, or in contemplation
of being engaged, in a course of litis contestation,‡ or in the
framing of written evidentiary instruments, composed of the matter of
preappointed evidence, and as such framed with a view to eventual litis contestation.

Art. 2. ‡ Litis contestation is a term employed to signify indiscriminately
or the act of him who acts as whose station is on the demandant's side, and the act of that
of that gone through by him whose station is on the Defendant's side. on the occasion

Art. 3. Of a person who Coincident in signification in some wholly or partially with
Synonymous to demandant are, in the English in English the words in English bred law language,
the words are claimant plaintiff complainant, orator, pursuer, prosecutor, informer
and perhaps others: one are being the denominations employed in one judicatory, another, in another.

Art. 4. Upon clearness as well as compleatness, in anything like an
as adequate degree an absolute veto on this occasion is ut by the nature
of the case, improved by sinister industry: what follows is then seen is the nearest approach that can have been afforded.

Art. 5. Coincident in like manner with Defendant are is
Defender: and perhaps also some others.

Art. 6. In Coincident in some sort in signification in some
sort with litis contestation in some sort, is litigation: and this last is
the term most commonly employed. But, to the import
of the word litigation has become attached in the mind of him who employs it a sentiment
of disapprobation in relation to the act or practice designated
by it: litis contestation being the neutral, litigation
the dyslogistic or say disapprobative or as it has been
called dyslogistic or cacologistic appellative applied to the same course of action.

Art. 7. From Out of this association has grown a most pernicious
vulgar error or fallacy: error on the part of those
who are not aware of the misrepresentation thus made;
fallacy, on the part of those who are. He whose endeavour
it is to obtain justice redress for errors is confounded by its as and he whose endeavour it is to do wrong
by force of the law⊞1 ⊞ are confounded by it
and represented as being
persons of the same character: – he whose endeavour it is to escape save himself from
an unjust demand and he whose endeavour it is to save
himself from a just demand are involved in the same opprobriums
and thus it is that under the motion or on the pretence of repressing litigation the
rich and powerful
combine with one another
in consummating the oppression
of the poor and
helpless.
