    s Holmes had obtained a judgment in the County Court, and Butler having stated in an affidavit some causes of com plaint against the judgment, had procured a certiorari’ to issue returnable to this term, only two terms having first intervened.
   -Per cuñam

When a certiorari issues, the adverse party has noticé to appear on the return day of the certiorari, and if the writ is not then returned, nor any proceedings had to continue it in court, it is like other writs tinued, and a procedendo ought to issue. Here is clearly a discontinuance, therefore let a discontinuance be entered, and a procedendo issue to the court below.
