BY AUTHORITY.
LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES
Passed at the I'd Session Of the eth Congress
JPuBLIc-No. 33.1

AN ACT to regulate arrests on mesne
process in the District of Columbia.
Be it enacted by tie Senate and House
of Representatives Of the United States of
America, IN Congress assembled, That here
after no person shall be held to bail in
any civil suit in the District of Columbia,
unless on affidavit filed by the plaintiff or
his agent, stating in cases of debt or con-
tract the amount Of which he verify be-
lieves TO be due, and that the same has
been contracted by fraud or false pre-
fences, or through breach of trust, or that
the defendant is concealing or has concealed
his property in the District or elsewhere,
or is about to remove the same from this
District or the place of his residence, in
order to evade the payment of the debt,
or that, being resident of the District
and domiciled therein, is about to abscond
without paying the debt, and with view
to avoid the payment of the same, setting
forth all the facts on which said allegations
of fraud or breach of trust are founded,
and in all cases setting forth the grounds,
nature, and particulars of the claim. The
sufficiency of the affidavit to hold to bail,
and the amount of bail to be given, shall,
upon application of the defendant, be de.
cided by the court in term time, and by
any single Judge in vacation. In all cases
in which the affidavit required by this act
is not filed previously to issuing the writ
the defendant, upon its service, shall not
be required to give bail, but merely to sign
an order to the clerk of the court to enter
his appearance in the cause, which, if he
refuses to do, he may then be held to bal
as in other cases.
Sec. Q. And be it further enacted, Tha
any person now held to bail in civil sui
in the said District may apply to the Cir
cult Court of the said District in tern
time, or to any judge thereof in vacation
for rule to show cause why he shall no
be discharged on filing common appear
ance, and shall be so discharged unless
the plaintiff or his agent shall file a sufh
Gent affidavit, in conformity with the pro
visions of the preceding section, within
reasonable period of time to be assigne,
by the court or the Judge to whom tn,
application is made.
