TAYLOR v. WILSON.
    No action lies to recover the expenses to which a party has been put,' by being improperly sued.
    On certiorari.
    
    
      It appeared from the return in this ease, that Taylor, the defendant below, had been summoned to answer Wilson “in a plea of damage.’’ Wilson’s action appeared to have been in part to recover from Taylor certain costs and expenses which he had incurred in defending himself in a suit brought against him by Taylor, before Justice Tatem, in which the justice decided there was no cause of action.
   Per Cur.

This judgment must be reversed ; no action lies for such expenses, though there can be no doubt Wilson has been injured.
