Circuit Court, District of Columbia.

June Term, 1807.

PRACTICE—FILING PLEADINGS—CONTINUANCE.

The plaintiff will not be permitted to file his replication, after the rule-day, and in term time, but upon condition of a continuance of the cause to the next term.

This suit was brought to July term, 1803. A rule was laid on the plaintiff to reply by the last rule-day. A replication was filed without consent, on the second day of this court and not on the rule-day.

Mr. Vanhorn, for plaintiff.

Mr. Morsell, for defendant.

THE COURT refused to receive the replication but upon the terms of a continuance to the opposite party.
