INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT; WErner Mier. St PT. 13.
Mr. Commissioner LAW did not, take his seat until atter eleven
o'clock, having Seen engaged in his private room' with the view of
the promulgation of some new rules and orders, relative to the
practice of this Cohn, referring principally to the country attorneys.
Robert Elphin Bligh, Esq. of Berkelev.rquare, described in his
petition as a Captain on Ulf-pay in the Wad regiment of foot, war
brought up for hearing.
Mr. Poxioca appeared on behalf of the executors of a potion
named Taylor.
The Cocal wished to know whether the Learned Goldman
was remitted On behilf of Earl Darnley; as that Nobleman at pear.
ed to have entered an oppOsltion ?
Mr. Poci.ooX rep;:ed that the Noble Lord had been served with
a notice, and the petitioner had placed his name in the schedule :
nevertheless, he did not appear to raise any, objection to Captain
Bligh's discharge. The debt to which he (Mr. Pollock) alluded
was No. 24 lti the schedule, where his noble client (Earl Darnley I
was stated to be a claimant for GOW., and something was said about
costs. The fact *as, that the suppotted liability arose out of pro.
ceedinmi in one of the tuperlor Courts, whence a warrant issued
against the insolvent by the fiat of the Lord Chief Justice for bins
to keep the peace towards Lord Darnle_y, and thereupon recogni..
zanccs were entered into. AU that the Learned Counsel had to say
in reference to Lotd Darnley wad, that his client disavowed that
any debt reined, therefore the better way would be to have it,
expunged from the schedule.
Mr. Commissioner LAW said that whatever the amount of the
penalty was, as inserted in the warrant as a condition, could not be
construed as a debt due to his Lortithip.
Mr. HEATH (with whom WWI Mr. COOKE) said as Lord DAM,
ley was a party in the prosecution, it had been deemed proper by
the insolvent's attorney to insert the matter by why of safety ;
a there was no objection, the debt had better be struck out.
After several deeds relating to property connected with the ir.
solvent's estate had been read, and certain amendments ordered. the
Court intimated that on Wednesday next (these thine' being done
in the interval), he might come up to receive his order to be dis•
