1823. Decr. 10.
Constitutional Code or Procedure

16
Ch.
(2) §.

47 or 17
Cases 3.
1. Power to Judge to redress
hear and redress
2. to hear but not
redress
3. No power to redress
or hear

Between these cases
to attempt to settle
the distinction would
require a volume:
after which the matter
would be obscurer
than before.

In speaking of this Judge, a description is given
of three sorts of cases. 1st Cases in which he has
power to give redress as well as to hear: 2. Cases
in which he has power to hear, but none to give
redress: 3. Cases in which he is not to meddle. So
much for the three genera: but to settle what species
belong respectively to these several genera,
would require a volume composed as this Code
is composed, which volume written the matter
would be still darker than before.

48 or 18
Where this Judicatory
can neither act nor hear
the inferior court above
it must it should seem,
be if any the one applied to.
Where it may hear
and out, it looks as if
the other might be so
likewise. See Art. 17

In the cases
in which this Court which is below the inferior
court is not to meddle, the inferior Court is the
Court into which the suit must come, if into
any in cases in which this lowest Court has
power to act as well as to hear, it looks as if the
Court next above it might act likewise, that is to
say, that the suitor may proceed in the one or the
other at his choice.

49 or 19
Where it can do nothing,
nothing can the
other Judicatory, noted above
do till this has done
its nothing

In the case in which it may hear every
thing but can do nothing, nothing can the Court
next above it do, till this lowest Court has node
its nothing.

50 or 20
To this case apply
the words reconciliation
and peace. To
effect the reconciliation is
the function committed
to the Judge of Peace.

In this case it is, that reconciliation
as well as peace is the word. To bring about a
reconcilation between the parties, is the amiable & dignified function
allotted to the Judge of Peace. On this occasion
the parties are not peremptorily excluded from
the presence of their Judge: they may see him. each
of them, in person, and they may see him together,
if they both please. But they may, each of them,
see him by proxy only, if such be their choice.
Where the Tribunal of First Instance is the Judicatory
the name of this proxy is an Avoué
when it is the Court below the inferior Court, he
is Fondé de pouvoir

51 or 21
As to meeting and seeing one another
before the Judge, permission
yes but obligation none [+]
permission is given to employ a Fondé de pouvoir. Imagine here whether he is not the hireling avoué under this other name.

Whether anything & what
is saved to the client
by this change
of denomination
may be left to be
imagined. Whether
