VENT.

Mr. Coosa, on behalf of Mr. Brown, Warden
of the Fleet prison, appeared to show cause against
a rule obtained upon a former day, calling upon that
gentleman to show cause why he should not be
committed to prison for contempt, in having refused
to obey the order of the Court, which directed the
discharge of the above-named insolvent. The
learned counsel, after adverting to the vague man-
ner in which the report was drawn up, and to the
falsehoods contained in the insolvent's affidavit, pro-
ceeded to argue that the proper place had not been
chosen to bring this question to an issue. Mr.
Brown held his appo:ntment under letters patent
granted by the Crown, and by virtue of an act of
Parliament passed in the reign of George H., enti-
tled " The Lords' Act." In the Hilary term of
the 30th of Geo. 11., certain rules and regulations
were made by the Judges of the Common Pleas,
for the government of the Fleet prison. By the
fifth of these rules any prisoner who refused or was
unable to pay chamber.rent, might be turned out in
the common wards; and the sixth rule said, that

...

the warden shall have liberty to detain the pert
of prisoners until all fees were paid by them. cd
learned counsel, in support of his arguments chip
the case of Roehfort, in the Common Pk., of
which the Court laid it down, that the Ward44lLd
the Fleet prison was perfectly justified in demon"
fees of prisoners.
Mr. CRESWELL followed on the same side. ,be
Mr. DUNN, contra, urged that the rule should
made absolute. The simple question was this—lis
Mr. Brown justified, aye or no, in imprisoning `...i
insolvent for the amount of his fees, and did lie ',—
thereby incur contempt ? The Learned Gentle.;
in speaking of the rules and regulations made bye'
Court of Common Pleas, contended that no J
had the power to order the imprisonment of al ; • •
dividual who was liberated from custody by v
of an Act of Parliament. It was monstrous tot •
that a man should be imprisoned, at the suit (LA
keeper of 4 gaol, after the laws of his country iv`"
sanctioned his release. The Learned Gentlest'
after a very elaborate and ingenious speeeh, c...%
eluded by calling upon the. Court to make the '
absolute, with costs.
~..s 'ee*
The CHIEF COMMISSIONER, after a taw nj
sultation with his brother Commissioners, delifeos
the judgment of the Court. After considering/a, ,
the arguments of the Learned Gentleman....eVro.
Dunn), the Court was of opinion that the ac—tio
of the superior Judges ought to be their guidelll44o
instance. They therefore decided, that the W 6 Ale'
was not guilty of the alleged contempt. The ''''
was therefore discharged, but without costs..
