Ch. Judicial abuses obviated
§.

1. So Bonaparte's Code.
Fess on both sides.
True in some cases
if sufficient persons
may have reimbursement:
meantime, no
fees money no claim for
redress.

Turn first to Bonaparte's Code. Fees exacted
from both sides. Under the name of costs the pursuer
it is true, may, in whole or in part receive if he succeeds
recover the amount from the defendant: but in
the mean time, no fees, no money no chance for redress.

34 or 2
Were pursuer's
of Defendant
to amount depending
on the Judge, Judge
being spoke to in
public by pursuer,
many a suit would
this be nipt in the
bud: no as
yet subjected to
at the pleasure
of another.

35 or 3
In the case of suits
in general, the ground
they stand upon would
be seen in many
cases in a few minutes
in all in a few hours.

When Were the parties, or to take them one at a time the
pursuer or would be pursuer, admitted to the speech of
the Judge, the faculty of calling the defendant to
account, being left to depend upon the ground he could
make for to the satisfaction of the Judge, many a groundless suit

by applicant, under the restraint imposed by the apprehension
of condign punishment in the event of misrepresentation
in any shape accompanied with blame.

36 or 4
In all the conferring the
vexation would depend
not upon the will of an
angry antagonist but upon do of an impatient Judge: after hearing a statement, penalties in case of incorrectness accompanied with blame

if not competent for assistant he would have the Judge.

To the affording of all necessary explanations, the
applicant without assistance from any third person at any
rate without any assistance of the so dearly paid for in the<lb/character of professional assistance, would of himself be competent:
at ant rate an account of the matter will have been given
by the person most
likely to be best
with it & this without
the smallest expense
or vexation as yet
to anybody else:
excepted always the Judge who by power and money, is to his own satisfaction paid for suffering it.
