Note
Advocates (a) These false allegations under the English law are a known
resource & that constantly resorted to by which every
dishonest defendant is enabled to purchase a certain
measure of delay at a fixed price, without any
further expence except that of a lie of which no man
bears the blame. These allegations are known in Westminster Hall by the name of sham pleas: but neither the foulness of the disease nor its notoriety produce any disposition to apply a cure which imitation without the expence of ingenuity is would be sufficient to affect(a) In a few cases this liberty has
been narrowed by requ the requisition of an oath, 4. & 5. Ann. Chist
which doubtless is not altogether without effect, although
the oath is made a sort of matter of form upon paper without cross examination
and out of the presence at a distance from the Judge.
