To apply the distinction to the case in hand – that
of appeals. appeal.
The malâ fide appellant is that species of animal the malâ fide suitor
of whose existence I have been employing so much and I am
of from such fruitless labour to impress the conviction upon
Your Lordship's learned Reformer's mind. He himself
is as well satisfied as any body one else can be of his having
The rash or appellant no rights to the sort of service which by the appeal he prays demands
for, but as for as much as under the protection afforded to him
under the name of law by learned Lords and Gentlemen
he finds it or deems reckons it his interest to persevere in such demand,
he perseveres accordingly.
The appellant who though by the supposition he
is in the wrong, is not conscious of his being so, and therefore
is not a malâ fide appellant, may according
to analogy, reference being had to the above cardinal
distinction, be termed though a bonâ fide a temerious appellant – his
conduct in the respect of his preferring such appeal may
be said to be coupled or textured with temerity – and so
forth.
