Practice And Pleading In Personal Actions In The Courts Of Massachusetts Etc

Excerpt from Practice and Pleading in Personal Actions in the Courts of Massachusetts In the preparation of the present edition, the second edition has been thoroughly revised, and all obsolete matter stricken out. A large amount of new matter has been added, under the different topics treated of; among which may, especially, be mentioned the subjects of the Courts and their Jurisdiction, Certiorari, Review, Writ of Error, Trustee Process, Judgment and Execution, Appeals, and Exceptions. The new matter added to the book amounts, altogether, to about one hundred pages. About five hundred citations of cases have been added, including all the cases decided, upon points of pleading or practice, by the Supreme Judicial Court, since the publication of the second edition. All new legislation in any way affecting the subjects treated of, from that of the legislative session of 1883 to and including the important legislation of the session of 1893, has been noted. Gratefully acknowledging the favor with which the former editions of their work have been received, the authors submit the present edition to the indulgent consideration of the legal profession of the Commonwealth.
