Book Description
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Pleadings and Practice of the Court of Chancery: Being a Condensed Statement of the General Principles of Equity Pleadings and Practice, and Though Referring Specially to the Statutes of Michigan, Yet Adapted to Any State Where Equity Practice Prevails, and Especially to the United States Courts Any recent treatise on Chancery Practice and Pleading must necessarily be but a condensation of the numerous and extensive works already published, and the brevity imposed by the limitation to a single volume must necessarily result in the sacrifice of some matter which it would have been useful to retain. This book is designed to meet an increasing demand by the younger practitioners of the State for a moderate priced work, containing a simple outline of the various steps required in an ordinary chancery suit, with a statement of some of the general principles underlying the practice as applicable to Michigan legislation, and illustrated by the decisions of our Supreme Court, together with a collection of some of the more useful forms. As a matter of convenience to the profession the Chancery rules adopted by our Supreme Court up to the present time, have been added. As the United States Circuit Courts possess general equity jurisdiction, and the State practitioner will have frequent occasion to resort to it, the equity rules adopted by the Supreme Court of the United States, and by the Judges of this Circuit, with annotations, have also been added to the work and referred to in the text.
