Head Matter:
STATE v. ISAAC ATKINS.
Court of Quarter Sessions.
November, 1794.
Wilson’s Red Book, 40.
Wilson for defendant
instdnter (upon plea demanded and tried) moved for a term to go to trial in, and cited 4 Bl.Comm., and urged the inconvenience of being prepared to trial the first term without having considered his case or inquired for witnesses, etc.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
We will not be bound by the practice in England in this respect; we will only give a term where we think it is necessary.
Defendant submitted and was fined two dollars, I believe.
