Examples.
1. for forming a
decision
In this case however
there is no actual
inconvenience produced
if the decision appears
to be right

Precipitation is considered as taking place
when in any part any thing is supposed to be
struck off or from this supposed
necessary length of time — Thus if a cause be
supposed to be of thus importance that after
the hearing of all the proofs a less time
than a week cannot it is supposed be
sufficient on the part of the Judge to be
employed in the consideration of them & the
time employed by the Judge in the consideration
of them is no more than a single day
in such case the Judge must by the inferiority
he deemed chargeable with precipitation If then
in consequence of such supposed precipitation
the judgment actually given by the Judge is
repugnant to one or other of the ultimate
ends of justice in this case the mischief
correspondent to such ultimate end is
actually produced. But in the other opposite case i:e:
if the decision of the Judge be conformable to
the ultimate ends of justice no mischief at
all is produced by precipitation the contingency
is now reduced to on the contrary so far
from being productive of inconvenience the
supposed precipitation is productive of
advantage upon the whole since by virtue
of it as much time
as corresponds
to the delay thus saved is saved.

Thus much as to what concerns the interests
of the ind parties individual parties to the cause
and the correspondent mischiefs and advantages
of the first order the principal mischief liable to
is of the second order viz the alarm & danger
