1827 Feb. 26
Procedure Code

1
+ Ch. Beginning
(1 §.1

Occasions and Keepers before Operators

1
Whatever is is right
is the maxim upon which
all writings on procedure
have hitherto been
founded.

Whatever is is right. This is the maxim
is the
on which every thing that as yet has been said or
written on the subject of procedure has had its foundation: this is the
postulation from which every demonstration has been deduced
je ne sais or Or, reading backwards — is it is, therefore so
it is fit to be and ought to be. This is the logic the
mathematics: of power: of and their dissidents

2
Upon the present
occasion, conducive the
standard of rectitude is
the conduciveness of the
procedure to the giving
execution and effect to the
substantive branch of
the law.

Different to the degree of is the logic of the
this ensuing page. The standard of comparison the of
whatsoever is proposed to be done is the purpose of the substantive
branch of the law. This for the present purpose is assured as the
standard of rectitude. But when that was the principal subject
matter of discourse, was studied it was not its own the assured standard — the will of the
lawmakers was not the then but the greatest happiness principle
like the present occasion — however, the substantive law as it is
can not in the nature of the case but be taken for the object
of reference: conformity to it — conduciveness of the purpose
of giving execution and effect to it — the standard of rectitude

3
First then and on each
occasion will be to be taken
as an objects of reference to
this standard of rectitude
the existing procedure systems of
the several countries and
governments.

First then on each occasion will be to be stated the
dictates of utility on this ground, the taking them for the object
of reference and standard of rectitude will come the regulation
established, the practice observed under the procedure system
of the in the several countries and under the several governments +
[+] as far as material and
practical

+ ☞ Go on in here to speak practice of the Common Law system and the
Equity system — their different modes of aberration from the law of rectitude
