Head Matter:
[123] VANDYKE v. TENBROKE’S EXECUTORS. SAME v. SAME.
A party may discontinue a writ of error before filing tbe. record, in case of mistake. _
Lealee moved to discontinue the writs of error in these cases, without filing the writs or proceedings.

Opinion:
Per 'Cur.
It appears the writs were sued out, upon a supposition that judgments had been entered in these cases in the Court of Common Pleas of Somerset county, which were actually not entered. We think a mistake of this kind ought not to prejudice a party.
Rule to discontinue, absolute.
