§.3 Suits in pendency
11
Prevention of
disappointment
this the only
justification of
the decision in
evil cases.
Prevention of disappointment — The fo more closely
the matter is considered, the more satisfactory will be a
man's conviction, that by this short re phrase short
as it is, is excluded the only [justifiable] reason why
to over in relation to the matter of wealth and the other
objects of the general desire that which is regarded as
each mans own should be secured to him, instead of rather than
being h given to any this or that other man, or left to
be taken by any man so inclined.
13
This the object
of all arrangements
for the security
of property
Well then this is the object of all the several arrangements
made for the security of property this is the
end in view: in all these cases instances it is the object — how
so ever indirectly and tortuously — through ever so or many turnings
and windings, aimed at.
14
This being admitted
why not in each
instance give the
Judge a direct power
of giving such decisions.
This being admitted — why not, as here proposed,
permitt the Ju in each instance the Judge, to use thrust his
nose at this object, in a direct and straight forward way
at once. In respect of dispatch — of exclusion of delay,
the advantage (will it is assumed such the assumption is) incontestable
15
No evil to be
apprehended so great
as under existing
system
In respect of avoidance of misdecision or for the apprehension of any
evil greater than the existing system can any ground be assigned?
If any suit then be it must be a the evil in question must
be an evil either of the 1st order or of the 2d order, as above
described explained
1. First then as to the evil of the first order. This evil
consists in the painful sense of disappointment produced by
the loss or non obtainment of the money or moneysworth
in question: non obtainment on the part of a demandant,
loss on the part of a defendant.
Now under the existing System — under any existing
system, whatsoever the decision, evil in one or other of these shapes
can not but follow
Identifier: | JB/081/100/001 "JB/" can not be assigned to a declared number type with value 81.
