      LOIJCKS, for the defendant,
    moved for judgment as in ease of nonsuit, for not proceeding to trial, &c. It appeared that the plaintiff) after giving notice of trial at the last circuit, countermanded the notice.
    
      Talcot, for the plaintiff)
    offered to stipulate; and the question was, whether the defendant was not entitled to costs, for preparing for trial, after the notice and before the countermand. He cited Jackson v. Mann, 1 Caines Rep. 123.
   Per Curiam.

The plaintiff may stipulate; but he must pay to the defendant his costs, if any have arisen between the time of receiving the notice of trial and the countermand.
