C
PROCEDURE. Miscell

[Jeofails and other] formal exceptions are all in
favour of guilt: for innocence does not want them

Intricacy

The Law of Procedure is a system of conditions:
of conditions on which [the] [happening infliction of the]
Punishment [prescribed by the substantive parts
of the Law] is made to depend. The infliction
of a Punishment is an event. The
more conditions an event of any kind is made
to depend on the less probable it is that will take
place. With regard to such of these
events as are acts this improbability will encrease
1st with the number with the difficulty there may be in performing
each them respectively.

Every an event then on which as a condition
the infliction of punishment is made to depend
every step required to be taken, every success
to be observed renders the infliction of punishment
less probable: & on that account is of detriment
to the community. But what is wanting
to a punishment in probability in order to its
being a more feasible determinative than the
benefit of the offence, must be made up in
magnitude: severity which and this in one event is become detrimental
to the delinquent. If it be detrimental
to the community at large, a fortieri is it to the a
party injured where there is one: It is therefore
detrimental to all parties.
