CASE OF LANDLORD AND TENANT.—At the Judges'
Chambers yesterday Mr Chitty applied on the part of
Frederick Insoll, a prisoner in Ifereford Gaol, to put in bait
to prosecute an appeal at the Quarter Sessions, under extra"
ordinary circumstances. Insoll was a bankrupt, and a
tenant of a Mr Masefield ; ho removed his goods away front
the place, and was summoned before justices in Petty Sea'
sions at Ledbury, and committed under the Act of the 11th
of George 11., passed in 1738, for two months, for fraudw
lently depriving the landlord of his rent by cistress.
stated that he was a bankrupt and protected ; on which the
justices held that ho had no goods to distrain upon. and
committed him for two months, although the Act state
that an offender should be committed for six months fa
hard labour. The commitment was made on the 11th of
August, and on the 30th of August an application was mad°
on his behalf to Mr Justice Slice, on the ground that
the commitment was bad. His lordship, however, refused
to interfere, and the facts were brought under his notice
on an application to put in bail to prosecute an appeal'
Mr Butterworth, on the other side, contended that tho
application was made too late, and under the Act in Tice'
tion the order having been executed, and the time more than
half expired, it could not be granted. Mr Chitty said all
application had been made to the justices a few days since,
and they held it was " too late." He, however, contended
thet under a case ho cited an application might be made
before the expiration of the imprisonment. It was a mon-
strous case, and, according to a recent case which had been
reported in the newspapers, a bankrupt was entitled to hie
protection from a debt, and the commitment could be got
rid of by paying a sum of money. Mr Justice Sheo
dered the act of Parliament, and the authorities cited. nisi
lordship hold that as the order had been executed ho could
not interfere. Mr Chitty intimated that other proceedings
would be adopted in the mutter.
