1824. REGULA GENERALIS (a). Easter Term, 1824, ORDERED BY THE COURT, that no rule for judgment as in case of a nonsuit be granted in the next term after issue joined, unless it appear on the affidavit on which the motion is founded, that the plaintiff had given notice of trial, and had neglected to proceed to trial pursuant to such notice. GENERAL ORDER. Trinity Term, 1824. THE LORD CHIEF BARON directs, that the short causes in the General Paper are to be placed in the paper for the last cause day in each term; but no cause is to be placed in the paper as a short cause, in which any question arises, or any point is to be discussed. (a) See Index, note to PRACTICE (Plea and Revenue Side), No. I. 709 ADDENDA. THE decree nisi granted in Harris v. Finch and others (see p. 143), has since been made absolute. IN consequence of the observations which occur at page 491, on the order made in Orme v. Crockford, reported p. 185, et seq., it is deemed proper to insert that order from the entry in the Minute Book, which is in the terms following: "Demurrer allowed, with 57. costs, and the bill dismissed."
