Causes set down for

disposed of

Art. 19. Causes set down for hearing.

Of masses of causes thus circumstanced,
a mass of the diminution of which there
is no prospect, and of the increase on the contrary
there is a very decided prospect, has been
every now and then brought to view. Here
then we have one desperate case, which, as such,
which w were there even hazard attendant on
it, might be well worth the trial. This was the
class of cases, by which the idea of this institution
was in the first instance suggested. Here, (said
the author to himself,) here is an instance in
which the particular and sinister interest of the
lawyer would not be a sufferer by the benefit
conferred on his client, in which the two interests
are combined in one, in which the interest of
the Lawyer is in union with that which, how
small soever the accordance between words and
deeds, he could not but acknowledge to be his
duty. To the suitor, his client, how would be dispatch
given, delay saved: the Lawyer all this while
not being a sufferer from the relief given to his
Client. For by the supposition the Suit is at a stand;
until the time for hearing having come, hearing
is actually performed, there is nothing more
to be done: operation none performed; written instrument
none given in. This, however, was
but a first thought. Came a second, and then was
it seen that though benefit to Client without injury
to Lawyer was on the surface, not far underneath
was the extensive and perennial injury flowing
from the relatively bad example: The example
set by the substitution thus made of the ends
of justice to the ends of judicature.
