Mr. HART moved to dissolve an injunction granted in this case, to restrain the Defeatism's from entering up judgment on the verdict of • Jury. The circumstances were, that the Plaintiff's had been in the habit of accepting hills as capon ogre in trade, but afterwards one of the arm ac cepted the hills, mid released the other partners from their responsibility to make good the pay ment. One of these bills had come into the pos session of tile Defendants, and they brought their action in the Court of King's Bench to recover the amount of the acceptance against the whole of the partner,. and on the trial at Nisi Pries. the Lord Chief Justice, after hearing Counsel on both sides, gave it as his opinion on the how of the case, that it was a settled point when such a transaction took piece between partners, and a release was given by one partner to the other. that it did not exempt the partner released from the coneequences of the acts of the other partner, and the Jure returned • ver. diet accordingly, fur the Plaintiff's et letv and the Defendants in equity. The Defendants afterwards applied to the Court of King's Bench to set aside the verdict of the Jury. and to grant a new trial, which the full Court refused, as they agreed that the decision of the Lord Chief Justice, delivered at Nisi P•iisq was correct, and therefore conclusive. He (the Learued Comisel) contended that this was sufficient ground for his Lordship to dissolve the injunction.

By the Act of 1807, the cootinev once of that odious traffic was only encountered by pecuoiary penalties.
