Constitutional Code.
Ch. XII Judicatory collectively
§.1.
3
Copd.
8
Judicatory vice Court
Reasons
Ratiocinative
Art. 8. For the designation of a Judicatory
why employ this form to the exclusion of the word Court
more commonly employed — the word Court.
1 Court ambiguous
Judicatory not
&
2 Court delusive
Answer. Reason
1. The word Judicatory is clear from all delusive
ambiguity: the word Court, not.
2. The word Court, besides excluding clearness of ambiguity
is liable to produce mischievous error and delusion.

3 Judicatory if ambiguous
its ambiguity slight
& innoxious
3. Not that the word Judicatory is it must be confessed is not
altogether free from ambiguity: but the ambiguity is of a sort
from which no misconception not not so much as misconception, much less any evil effect in

In conformity to a customary figure of speech from the original and proper signification
comes the improper
word — the derivative
from the signification a place in which a person or persons of a
certain it came to signify the person or
persons so sig.

4 Court not only has
this innoxious ambiguity
but another
noxious one
4. Tainted T T indeed by this same ambiguity is the import of the
word Court: tainted . But besides this innoxious fiction of
it is imperfection, so is it tainted by another, and that a
noxious one.
