Head Matter:
John T. Wilson, Respondent, v. Helen M. Simpson et al., Appellants.
The Supreme Court may, in its discretion, instead of compelling the successful party in an action to enter a formal judgment, direct that unless judgment is so entered within "a time specified, the defeated party may enter it; and the exercise of this discretion is not reviewable here.
(Submitted March 15, 1881;
decided March 25, 1881.).

Held, as above.
