LAW REPORTS.
COURT OF CHANCERY.
IN RE DICAtt.
In the Court of Chancery, on Wednesday, the Lord Chancellor gave
judgment upon the application of Mr. Dices, a solicitor, to be die-'•
charged from custody. He had been arrested on an attachment from
the Court of Chancery, whilst attending for a client in the Court of
Common Pleas. The question, said his Lordship, to be decided in i
this case, involved the right of suitors to certain privileges which they '
now possessed, for it was on their account that the privilege was esta-
blished through the persons of attornies. His Lordship's first impres-
sion was, that an attorney ur solicitor, while engaged in the Courts, could
never be arrested in civil process, but that he was entitled to protection
of his personal liberty eundo,ntorando, el redeundo. There was no doubt
as to this rule in the process in civil actions ; but, in the present case,
the process being upon attachment, it had been argued that it was of a
criminal, and not of a civil nature. He denied that it was so ; in ha
technical form the process of attachment might be deemed criminal;
but in spirit and effect it was a civil process. His Lordship regretted
that the cases upon the point which had been decided in Courts of Law
tad not been more particularly adverted to. It was held by the text
writers, and confirmed by express decisions, that attorniesi bail, wit-
t.e.sea, and the parties in causes, were privileged eundo,ntorando, et re.
fletnew. This privilege extended to attendance in the Insolvent Debtor's
Omit ; and though there hdd been doubts as to whether it extended
to the Cuur:a of Commission of Bankrupts, it was now held
shat it did apply to them also. An attorney was entitled to two sorts
of protection; one as an officer of the Court, in which character he could '
not be sued on mean process, but proceedings must be commenced in
another form. The other protection was, when be was employed for
others in his capacity of attorney or solicitor, when he could
not be arrested upon that process, upon which, when not so employed,
he might be taken. This privilege was not, however, to he abused, or
used as a colourable excuse. He (Lord B.) had consulted the Chief
Justices of the other Courts, and they entertained no doubt ea to the
practice of their own Courts upon the subject • ar4 the rivileges of
their Courts were us high in this respect as thole of this Court. His
lordship ordered Mr. Dies* to be discharged hum custody.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Max 5.
TIM CORPORATION OF LONDON v. THE cowatissioszas OP

CUSTOMS.
A rule was obtained, last Tem. calling upon the Commissioners of
Customs to *hew cause why a issandansue should not compel them to
pay over to the Corporation of London certain sums for salvage and
porterage on the goods, wares, and merchandise of aliens, landed at
the Custotn-ht.use, or within the jurisdiction of the City of London.—
The citizens claim this under a Royal Charter granted in the 16th of
Charles I.
Sir J. EN'ARLSTT this day appeared to sbew Mlle against the rule ;
)Jr. ADAMS, Mr. Law, and the Recommit in support of it.
Sir J. SCARLETT said the question was, whether the City had a
right to savage upon the goods of resident aliens; and there was also
a question upon the validity of their charter ? A great variety of do-
cument* would be required in the arguments, and therefore it might
be advantageous to all parties to arrange the facts in a special case
The proposition was rejected, and Sir James was preparing to argue the
points, when
The Codas. intimated that they ought to have the documents before
them to understand the question, and it was finally arranged that the
rule should be enlarged, upon an understanding that the matter is to be
orgued on Monday, the seventh day in next term.
rasLow T. THE MUNOEITORD MAZKIT COMPANY.
This was a question of compensation to an inhabitant of Hunger.
ford Market, who is compelled under the Act of Parliament to quit her
remises.
On a former day a rule was obtained, calling on the Hungerford
Market Company to show cause why a mandamus should not compel,
them to empannel a Jury to assess damages sustained by Mrs. Ann
Farlow, by being obliged to quit her premises, to make room for the
new market. Mrs. Farlow's husband and his father had been living on
the premises sixty years, and having improved the property, a com-
pensation is called for under the Act of Parliament, which in the 19th
section enacts that com nsation shall be given to all occupiers and te-
owls who sustain any e by being obliged to quit dick premises.
Sir J. beastly? the rule far a mandamus, on the ground
that Mrs. Farlow, being a tenant at will, had received due notice to
quit from her landlord, Mr. Wise, who had sold the Hungerford estate
to the Market Company. The notice expired at Christmas, 1830,
and as Mrs. Farlow did not quit, the Company had commenced an
action of ejectment. Under these circumstances, eke was coder a legal
