NAY CHECK DELAY
IN I. SUPREME ! ] ! COURT
FAST INCREASING EXPENSE OF
& PROCEDURE ALSO is TO BE
CURTAILED.
CHIEF JUSTICE BROWN TELLS
WHY CHANGES ARE MADE in 4
RULES.

- peileVeu, work TO Gne advantage OF the
people who have occasion to go before
that tribunal, in more ways than one.
Chief Justice Calvin L. Brown has given
out a statement, which will be of interest
to layrnen as well as to lawyers of the
state. Justice Brown says: IL
There were two reasons for the
changes in the procedure referred to,
namely, first a desire to check SO far as
possible the steadily increasing expense
Of appeals to the Supreme Court, and
second the ACCESSIBILITY Of overcoming
and doing away with certain forms and
customs which tended only to delay the
hearing and final decision Of appeals
Old Practice Set Aside
Heretofore the court has for many
years held two terms of court annually,
and on the first day of each the calendar
has been called and the cases set for
argument on dates during the succeed
ling three or four months The attorneys
engaged in the cases have been com-
PEELED, under a rule and practice estab-
lished years ago, to attend on such first
day and respond to the cases in which
they we're interested; for cases not re-
sponded to when called in their order
would ba cont;n,,od ovor The tow, TVS
