NO. 5146. Address to the Bar of Now Yerk,on the New Code of Practioe, At the request of the class of the young lawyers who were acimitied to practice, at the last Apral term of the Supreme Court of this State, the Hoa, Judge Edinom's, lust evening, addressed them in ition of the new code of practice, in the Su- preme Court Koom, in the City Mall, Although specially designed for the newly admitted mem- bem of the Bur, the well-known talent, ability, learning and experience of his Honor, attracted a ery crowded audience nong whom we recos- nized David Grahim, Msq., one of the Commis- sioners who framed the new code, and many other of the older members of the professtun. address embraced seyeraf points, and took a cursory, yet clear aud exp iew of the ferms of actions under the new code, che pleadings, the Judgment, the exeention, und the subject of costs, and divers interlocutory subjects convected with the, proceedings of # suit, trom its confnencement to its conclusion. Zhe new code of practice. he said, is a reform which owes its origin to the spirit of progress which is avroad; and it cannot be eapected to go back, more thanany other of the ero cauis and Ba wien wre tho Offspring of thy same agency; and although there is | much in it that can hie rat to haste, yet there is | Ukewise much in it to be valued and admired. The | first point which the learned Judge referred to, was the | abolition of what are called cred tors’ bills, a tedivns | | | | j | and expensive process under the old system, and the substitution of bills of discovery. This reform, ho said, is something more than many supposed, and is + the, beginning of » great work, and involves conse- quences of great moment, and is deserving of great consideration. Jt wus the intention of the newe n atitution not to de-troy the functions of the Court of Chanciry, from which these bills formerly issued; fir ‘the same powers which that court possessed are by tho Rew constitution invested in the Supreme Court. T 6 | jon from this was formed that the court «f | equity would be swaliowed up in the court of law. and | t the proceedings of the former were to be replaced | by moro expeditious ones. This improssion, however, ig to be removed, for it is more likely that the reverse would be the case. The natural consequence of th s will be to make necessary, more than ever, the study, of thecivillaw. The Judge then reverted back to the origin of both the civil and the common law, and traced their progress to the pr@nt day, for the pur Vode showing the importance of the change which beon lately introduced. and the necessity for studying the civil law The second point which he touched upon was in regard to pleadings, which he raid, must, under the new code, be all true ‘This reform he bh g-ly approved of, and had no doub' that it would be attended with the best consequences: Hitherto the pleadings in a cause have been prolix ard complicated, und in many cases have been in direes contradiction to the atiere al issue between the par ties litigant. Take, for instance, a suit ona bill of exchange. Toruch a suit the defence is that the was paid when dué) or thet it was not protested. Bit what could be gathered from ihe pleadings? What could the party gather from the declaration which was | served on him at the commencement of the suit? In | the ngs were false trom beginning to end, | and were known to be so by both the counsel and the | court. All was fiction—and to what good purpose ? It is useless now toiuquire to what good purpose. It's enough that the picacings were not a statement of facts, but actually w re concealments of the truth In | anaction in assumpsit. there might be tweaty-four different kinds of defence, and, for himself, the Judie said that at nisi privs, he very seldom referred to the pleadings im a cause xt all simply for the rdason that was no use in | oking in them for a statemont of the facts in issue b tween the parties, The tide of fiction in pi ng increased from time to time, until actual! ned to overwhelm oll that was valuable in the science. The English inter- fered to stop it, and established new rules by which the seience of pleading was restored to its true charactor. Suoh a reform a this has long been desired here by the best men in the profession, and was proposed by | the Judges of the Supreme Court in July lust, avd would have been then udopted, if the Legislature had not taken the necessary steps to make the reform cor « templated by the constitution in this particular. la the matter of pleading. heretofore, wll the pract tioner had to do was to send to the stationer for hia blanks, or refer to books of practice, so that instead of beooming studied in the great principles of pleadi ho became a more experienced seeker asf and seldom sought after the principle pass away, aud the practitioner will ve to go back 40 the fountain head of the principles, and mast of ne- ceasity become familiar with thom, and rely not, as heretofore, on established precedents and fictions. but | on ostablished prin: , and more especially will this become necessary, because every amaterial alleg: and denial are to be taken astrue This he thou: ‘would increase the leurning, and elevate the charac ter of the bar. ‘The speaker thon referred to the new practice regarding bills in cquity, and smid that it con- sisted ef the complaint, the answer and the reply. | These are to be the only pleadings, so that if issue be | not joined by them, it will have to be done orally on the ‘trial. This resembled the practice of the ‘civil law. On the form of actions, and the joinder of them, the speaker said it must be remembered that while all the old forms of proceeding are abolished, the ion cannot content themselves with the forms of an action, but must resort to the experience o. ages, and collect tromit what is good, so that hence- forth the leadiug principles of the science of law will come out as we goon. This will be the operation of the new code in this respect. Matters of practice were the great points which -Judge Edmonds alluded to, The real party to a suit must now prosecute it in hisown name. The modo of commencing suitsis different too, Hitherto it was done dy the service of a decluration with a notice to plead thin twenty days or judgment. &e, These declara- tions were not only indistinct, but actually false, so that the uninformed man could not tell for what he had been sued, and had to get some friend to inform him. He was invited into court of law, where he might bo deprived of his property, in a langaaze which ho did not understand. If the motive was to deceive purposely, a better plan to do so could not be conceived. By the new code, a summons is served oa the party sued. If he denies the debt or complaint, he may answer, and :f be do not judgment will go against him. A party may be held to bailas formerly, on the plaintiff giving security for the defendant's costs in case of his non-succers in establishing his claim for justice. The injunction is still retained, not, however, ‘as awrit, but 2s un order, the ulteration being simply that it is to be issued under the command of the judye, instead of under the seal of the court, as formerly, ‘This is a change which Judge Edmonds said he did not like, as it tends to brings parties litigant into too cio © contact with the judges who are to pass on the suits. An important alteration is made in abolishing excep- tions to answers; and, iustead of that, the defendantin asuit can beexamiped orally. If the answer be tmpu- dent orseandalous.such impu us matter can be stricken out. But the that it would not do to go into details on this cecasion, He would aason to other maticrs. and then referred to the eub- t of trial and its incidents, Issue is joined by Phere isan appeal from the judge who t on matters of law. to the Court of Ap cision of the judgo at »pe ters net affecting the me cision of the jury ie confined to matters ¢ n of tho Court of Appeals. alone, is final in matters ters of law, involving the s. In the matter of trials. the new codo bas ¢ Lan arrangement for the trial of issues of fact, by a single judge, for tho purpose of reliving the public of jury duty. This part of the new code, the Judge knid, he did net favor, He was in favor of requir ng evey part of the country to act as jurors, and ag part of the judiciury, ‘Che mon who frequently tike inthe adminisiration of the law, are invariably most desirous of preserving law and order, wh lo thore who do not, are ge rable to riot and disor This a of from his own experience.
