Williamson vs. More.
The practice of moving to suppress depositions, previous to the hearing, does not prevail in this court. -
Depositions can only he suppressed at the hearing.
In EauiTY. Motion to suppress depositions taken before an examiner, under the 85th rule of the late court of chancery; on the ground of irrelevancy and immateriality.
D. S. Jones, for the motion.
D. D. Field, contra.

Opinion:
Edmonds, J.
The old rules of the court of chancery do not apply to this court. The practice of applying to suppress depositions, on a special motion, was founded upon the rule on that subject, and was not a part of the general practice of the court of chancery; and as the rule has been abrogated, no such practice now exists. The proper course to pursue will be to move, on the hearing, to suppress the depositions.
Motion denied.
