Head Matter:
Ardrey v. Wadsworth.
A plaintiff who has been discharged under the Insolvent Act of Maryland, of 1774, since the commencement of the action, is still competent to maintain it.
Assumpsit. Non assumpsit and issue. The defendant offered evidence that the plaintiff had been released under the Insolvent Act of 1774, c. 28, since the bringing of this suit, and contended that the plaintiff’s right of action was transferred to the marshal, and so the plaintiff has no subsisting cause of action.

The Court
was of opinion that the plaintiff can still support the action.
