SPECIAL SUMMONS. 18. Every " Special Summons" shall be returnable on the eleventh day after the day of service thereof upon the Defendant, in case the Defendant, or one of the Defendants, resides in the County in which the action is brought ; in case none of the Defendants reside in the County, but one of them resides in an adjoining County, the Spe- cial Summons shall be returnable on the sixteenth day after the day of such service ■ and in case none of the Defendants reside in the County within which the action is brought, nor in an adjoining County, the Spedial Summons shall be returnable on the twenty-first day after the day of such service upon the Defendants. 10. In case a ^^ Special Summons" shall not be served in time to make the notice of the sittings of the Court at the foot of " Warning No. 2" available for the information of the Defendant, the Bailiff shall return the same forthwith to the Clerk who issued the summons, and the Clerk shall add a new notice of the proper days of the week and month on which the next two sittings of the Court are to be held, and shall return or transmit the same to the Bailiff for ser- vice. 20. A Defendant giving notice of set-ofif or other Statutory defence, or paying money into Court, or pleading a tender, shall be deemed to have sufficiently given the Clerk notice of disputing the Plaintiff's claim within the meaning of the Act of 1869. 21. When the Defendant's notice of defence disputes the claim in part only, the Clerk shall in the manner provided for in Eule 88, hereby notify the Plaintiff thereof, and require him forthwith to say in writing, if he is willing to take judgment for such part ; and if the Plaintiff fails to notify the Clerk that he is content to take judgment for the part admitted, it will be assumed that.he seeks to recover the whole claim, and in such case the Plaintiff must proceed to trial as in ordinary cases. 22. In case there are several Defendants, and all of them have, not been served with a special summons, then unless the Plaintiff is con- tent to take judgment against those served only, judgment cannot be entered on his behalf under the said Act, but the Plaintiff will have to proceed to a hearing before the Judge as in ordinary cases. 23. In case the notice required by the second section of the Act of 1869 has not been given by a sole Defendant^ or by one or more of several Defendants, (and the Plaintiff is willing to take judgm,ent against those only,) and leave to dispute the Plaintiff's claim has not RULES. 7 been given by the Judge, the Clerk, after receiving a return of the " fecial srnnmons," with the proper affidavit of service may, on the twelfth day after the service of the sununons, where the return, day is the eleventh day after service, and on the seventeenth and twenty- second days respectively, where the sixteenth and twenty-first days after the day of service are the return days of such summons, or at any time within one month after such return day, enter judgment against the Defendant or Defendants so served as aforesaid, for the claim, or so much thereof as has not been disputed, if the Plaintiff is content with judgment for such part. If the Plaintift is not content to take judgment for the part not disputed, he must proceed to trial, as in ordinary cases, and the part of such claim not disputed, shall be considered as admitted and confessed by the De- fendant or Defendants. 24. In case a sole Defendant, or some one or more of several De- fendants served with a " special summons," has or have given the necessary notice of defence required by the Statute, and the Plaintiff is hot willing to take judgment against those Defendants only who have made default, the action shall thereafter be proceeded with as in, ordinary cases, and the default of those Defendants (if any there be,) who have not given the notice at the time limited (unless the Judge gives them leave to put in such notice afterwa,rds,) shall be considered as against them, a confession of the Plaintiff's claim. 26. In actions commenced by special summons where there are more Defendants than one, and some of them have been served with process, but have not given any notice disputing the Plaintiff's claim, and other or others of them have not been served, but have given a confession of the debt, the Clerk shall produce or transmit the con- fession duly proved to the Judge for his order, and when the Judge's order shall be procured, the Clerk may enter judgment therein within one month after the return of the summons against all the Defendants for the amount claimed in the particulars, or so much thereof as has not been disputed (if the Plaintiff is content with judg- ment for part), provided that the Defendants who have confessed shall have acknowledged the same amount by their confession, and such judgment may be in the form 53, and it shall not be in the power of the Plaintiff to elect either to proceed on the confession against some of the Defendants, or to obtain final judgment against those Defendants who have not confessed, but the judgment shall be entered against all the Defendants jiontly. 27. In any action brought against two or more Defendants by " Special Summons," and. all such Defendants are not served on the same day,. the Clerk, if no notice of defence is entered by, such Defen- dant* or Defendants as are first served, may, on the day he could have 8 RULES. entered final judgment against such Defendants, if they had been all served; enter a minute in the Procedure Book, stating the fact of se^ vice, and of no defence, and the Clerk may so proceed against eack Defendant as the time falls due, until the last is served, when if he does not put in the necessary notice of defence in the proper time, final judgment may be signed against all,; but if it is not desired to enter judgment against one of the, several Defendants till all have been served, no such minute need be made. 28. If one or more liot being all of such Defendants, put in the necessary notice, the action shall proceed as in other cases, the Clerk, (unless the Plaintiff wishes to abandon those who defend) not siting judgment against those who have bfeen minuted, as a;foresaid, until the action against all is determined, so as to haVe but one taxation of costs. When the case is tried, if a judgment be given for the Plaintiff against those Defendants who dispute the claim, the Clerk may enter filial judgment against all the Defendants ; if at such trial a judgment be given for those Defendants, or any of them that dispute the Plain- tiff's claim, the Plaintiff if not intending to make a motion to have the said judgment reversed or altered, must obtain leave to amend his proceedings by striking out the names of those Defendants in whose favour judgment at the trial was given, and final judgi&ent may be then entered against those who have been minuted as above and against any Defendant against whom judgment at such trial was given. 29. Any Defendant who has been minuted as aforesaid, may he let in to defend on sufficient grounds shown to the Judge as in any ordinary case of judgment entered in default of the necessary notice. 30. In case the Defendant has given a confession or acknowledg- ment of debt, and has not put in the notice disputing the Plaintiff's claim, the Plaintiff may either proceed on the confession, as in ordin- ary cases, or may obtain final judgment under the Act of 1860, as he may elect. The costs and disbursements of transmitting such con- fession to the Judge to obtain the order for entering of judgment, shall be costs in the cause. 31. In case judgment be not entered by default, on a special sum- mons, within one month after the return of the summons, the Clerk cannot enter it afterwards ; but the suit shall not thereby abate or be considered as discontinued, but the Plaintiff may continue and revive the same at his own expense by suing out an alias summons in the ordinary form of summons to appear (Form 22), with the same particulars attached or endorsed as were attached to or endorsed on the " Special Summons," which shall be duly served upon the Defend- BULKS. 9 ant in the usual way, and the suit may then proceed as in ordinary cases. 32. The judgment shall be entered by the Clerk in the Procedure Book, according to the form to these rales appended, (No. 52), in lieu of the " Form B" m the Schedule to the Act of 1869. 33. The execution to be issued on a judgftient under the second section of tibe said Act shall bi9 in the form set forth in the schedule of forms to these rules. No. 77. 34. '^^ere,under the provisions of Sec. 18, of the Act of 1869, a-vmt of execireioii is required to be executed out of the Division, the writ may be directed by name of office to the Bailiff of any of the Divi- sion Courts in the same County, but cannot be issued to the Bailiff in another County. The returns required to be made under Sees. 18 and 19, must be made to the Clerk by whom the process or docu- ment has been issued. ATTACHMENTS. 35. The Form of affidavit for an Attachment shall be according to the Form 11. In all cases where an Attachment shall issue (whether the suit be commenced by attachment in the first instance or not), and the summons against the Defendant shall not be person- ally served, the hearing or trial shall not take place until a month after the seizure under the Attachment. 36. When several persons sue out warrants of attachment against an absconding, removing or concealed debtor, each one of such at- taching creditors may enter a defence, caU and examine, and cross- examine witnesses as to any debt or claim proved or attempted to be proved against the debtor, in the same way and to the same extent as the debtor himself might do were he personally to appear and defend the suit on any ground whatever. INTERPLEADER. 37. When any claim shall be made to, or in respect to, any goods or chattels, property, or security, taken in execution, or attached under the process of an Division Court, or the proceeds or value thereof, by any landlord for rent, or by atiy person, not being this party against whom such process has issued, and summonses have been issued on the apphcation of the officer, charged with the execu- tion of such process, such summonses shall be served in such time and manner, as is (firected for service of an ordinary summons to 10 EULES. appear ; and the case shall proceed as if the claimant were the Pliain- tiflf, and the execution or attaching creditor were the Defendant. 38. The claimant shall, not less than six days before the day appointed for the trial, leave at the office of the Clerk of the Court, a particular of any goods or chattels, property or secu- rity, alleged to be the property of the claimant, and the grounds of his claim, set forth in ordinary and concise language; or, in case of a claim for rent, the amount thereof, for what period, in respect to what premises the same is claimed to be due, and the terms of hold- ing : and any money paid into Court shall be retained by the Clerk until the claim shall be adjudicated upon ; provided that, by' consent, an, interpleader claim may be tried, although these rules may not have been complied with : and the summonses, the particulars, and the order thereon, shall be according to the Forms given or to the like eflFect. 39. In case the claimant shall not have complied with the rule in respect of deUvering a particular of his claim, the Judge may, upon such terms as he shall (firect, order the trial aud proceedings to he adjourned, so as to enable him fully to adjudicate upon the claim on the merits. 40. Where. the claim to any goods or chattels, property or security, taken in execution or attached, or the proceeds or value thereof, shall be dismissed, the costs of the Bailiif shall be allowed to him out of the amount levied, unless the Judge shall otherwise order. REPLEVIN. 41. In actions of Replevin no other cause of action shall be joined in the summons. 42. Where the distress is for rent, and the Defendant succeeds in the action, if the Defendant requires, the Judge shall find the value of the goods distrained, and if the value be less than the amount of rent in arrear, judgment shall be given for the amount of such value; but if the amount of the rent in arrear be less than the value so found, judgment shall be given for the amount of such rent, and may be in- forced in the same manner as any other judgment of the Court. 43. Where the distress is for damage feasant and the Defendant is entitled to judgment for the return^ if the PlaintiflF requires, the Judge shall find the amount of the damages sustained by the Defendant, RULES. 11 and judgment shall be given in favor of the Defendant in the alterna- tive for a return, or for the amount of the damages so found. • 44. In any other action of Replevin, the judgment for the Defen- dant shall be for a return of the goods ^replevied with the costs of suit, together with such damages as the Defendant shall sustain by the issuing of the writ of Replevin, if damages are awarded. 45. In case the Defendant in an action of Replevin shall pay dama- ges and costs into Court, under the 90th Section of the Act, and shall leave with the Clerk a consent that the Replevin bond be delivered up to be cancelled, and an express waiver of all right to the property replevied, and the Plaintiff accept such damages, the proceedings in the said action of Replevin shall thenceforth cease and be discontinued. 46. Before the Bailiff replevies, he shall take a bond in treble the value of the property, to be replevied, as stated in the writ, which bond shall be assignable to the Defendant, and the bond and assign- ment thereof may be in the Form given, the condition being varied to correspond with the writ. 47. The copy of the " Summons in Replevin" shall not be served upon the Defendant until the Bailiff has replevied the property, or some part of it, if he cannot replevy the whole in consequence of the Defendant having eloigned the same out of the County in which he is Bailiff, or because the same is not in the possession of the De- fendant, or of any other person for him. 48. A copy of " Summons in Replevin " shall be served on the Defendant personally, or if he cannot be found, by leaving the copy at his usual or last place of abode, with his wife, or some other grown person being a member of his household, or an inmate of the house wherein he resided as aforesaid. 49.

Form 119. 50. If the Bailiff makes such a return of the property distHuned, taken or detained, having been eloigned, then upon the filing of such return, a writ in Withernam (Consol. Stats. U. C, Cap. 29), shall be issued by the Clerk, who issued the summons in Eeplevin, and before executing such writ, the Badiff shall take pledges (sureties) in like manner as in cases of distress.

PEOCEEDINGS BY AND AGAINST EXECUTOES AND ADMINISTRATORS. 64. A party suing an executor or administrator, may charge in the summons, in the Form 32, that the Defendant has assets, and has wasted them. 65. In all cases, if the Courts shall be of the opinion that the De- fendant has wasted the assets, the judgment shall be, that the debtor damages, and costs shall be levied de bonis testatoris si &c., et, sinon, de bonis propriis ; and the non-payment of the amount of the demand immediately, on the Court finding such demand to be correct, and that the Defendent is chargeable in respect of assets, shall be conclu- sive evidence of wasting to the amount with which he is so charge- able. 66. Where an executor or administrator denies his representative character, or alleges a release to himself of the demand, whether he insists on any other ground of defence or not, and the judgment of the Court is in favor of the Plaintiff, it shall be, that the amount found to be due, and costs, shall be levied de bonis testatoris si &c., et, si nm, de bonis propriis. 67.

Where a Defendant admits his representative character, and the Plaintiff's demand, but alleges a total or partial administration , of the assets, but does not prove the administration alleged, the judgment shall be, to levy the amount of the demand, if so much assets is shown to halve come to the Defendant's hands, or so much as is shown to have come to them, and costs, de bonis testatoris si <&c., et, si non as to the costs, de bonis propriis ; and as to the residue of the demand, if any, judgment of assets, quando acciderint. 72. Where judgment has been given against an executor or ad- ministrator, that the amount be levied upon assets of the deceased, quando acciderint, the Plaintiff, or his personal representative, may issue a summons (Form 34) ; and if it shall appear, that assets have come to the hands of the executor or administrator since the judgment, the Court may order that the debt, damages, and costs be levied de bonis testatoris si &c., et, si non, as to the costs, de bonnis propriis: provided, that it shall be competent for the party applying, to charge in the summons, that the executor or admhiistrator has wasted the assets of the Testator or Intestate, in the same manner as in Eule 64 j and the provisions of Eule 65 shall apply to such en- quiry : and the Court may, if it appears that the party charged has wasted the assets, direct a levy to be made, as tp the debt and costs, de bonis testatoris si &e., et, si non, de bonis propriis. 73. Where a Defendant admits his representative character and the Plaintiff's demand, and that he is chargeable with any sum in respect • of assets, he shall pay such sum into Court subject to the rules re- lating to payment into Court, in other cases. 74. In actions against executors and administrators, for which pro- vision is not hereinbefore specially made, if the Defendant fails as to any of his defences, the judgment shall be for the Plaintiff, as to his 16 RULES. costs of disproving sucji defetee, and such costs shall be levied de horns testafoHs si d;c., et, si non, de lonis prqpriis. 75.

In case it becomes necessary to revive a judgment, by reason of a change by death, or otherwise, of the parties entitled or liable to execution ; the party alleging himself to be entitled to execution may sue out a summons (Forms 30, 33) for the revival of the judgment, and issue an execution thereupon. In case it shall appear, upon such ap- plication, that the party making the same is entitled to execution, the Judge shall order execution to issue accordingly, and shall also order whether or not the costs of such application shall be paid to the party making the same ; and in case it shall not so appear, the Judge shall discharge or dismiss the summons with or without costs. 158. The renewal of all writs of execution may be made from time to time, before the expiration thereof, by the Clerk of the Court issuing the same, by marking on the margin of the writ a memoran- dum to the following effect : — " Kenewed for 30 days from the date hereof."
