LAW REPORTS. COLUMBIA SUPERIOR COURT, ^ Januu/y Term, 1826 ) Wood vs. Pitman. A swore to certain facts contained in a bill, ,,nd obtained an injunction against B.—B, i“ bis answer, denied all tiie facts, and therefore C in dicted A for perjury, who, upon be in if acquitted, brought this action against C. At the trial. (, offered in evidence the answer of B to the bill in Chancery, in order to show probable cause. Ruled, that such answer in Chancery could no- be read in evidence, because it was only oath, at gainst oath, and the matter stood equally bal anced. This was an action on thfi case for a malicious prosecution. The defendant had prosecuted the plaintiff for perjury, assigned on the deposition of the plaintiff in a bill of injunction. And now the de fendant offered in evidence the arswer of the defendant to the bill of injunction, which answer contradicted the deposition of the complainant, Wood, in order to show probable cause for the prosecution for perjury ; and also to shew that he, the defendant to the bill of injunction, who was a witness in the action, was consistent with himself, having both times sworn to the same facts. By the Col’rt.—This answer in Chan cery cannot he given in evidence in this action, because, although it may contra dict or deny all the allegations in the bill, yet the oath of the plaintiff stands against it, and therefore they are eqnallv balanc ed ; and besides, the plaintiff had no op portunity to cross-examine the defendant in that case. Neither can that answer be received in evidence here, in order to prop up the testimony of the witness who made the answer, and is now a witness in this case, because if this mode of propping up testimony were allowed, everv witness could sustain himself by repeated lies and perjuries. The evidence rejected. Walker, for plaintiff. Fi.our.voy, for defendant. COLUMBIA SUPERIOR COURT. ? January Term, 1826. ) The State vs. Stanton Porter. After conviction on an indictment for forcible entry and detainer, restitution of possession or dered, notwithstanding the death of the wrong doer before sentence, and pending a motion for a new trial. . This was an indictment for a forcible entry and detainer, tried before Judge Reid, at the last term. The defendant was convicted, but having moved for a new trial, judgment was not passed on him. After conviction, the prosecutor, Pierson Petit, moved the Court for a writ of restitution. Neither of these motions was disposed of by Judge Reid, and pend ing both, the defendant, Stanton Porter, died. The motion for restitution being now called up for argument, is resisted bv the heirs of Stanton Porter, who, though not parties in Court, were heard as friends to the Court. The grounds of objection used by Mr. Reid, were these :—1st. That the defend ant having died seized, a descent was cast upon his heirs which tolls an entry ; and that therefore the prosecutor having no right of entry, cannot obtain restitution.— 2d. That the defendant being dead, and no judgment having passed on the verdict, restitution cannot be awarded.—3d. That the prosecutor was the principal witness.— 4th. That the defendant being dead, has no opportunity to shew cause against this motion.—5th. The defendant, if in life, might obtain a new trial. By' the Court.—Upon the first ground I might go into an elaborate discussion of the English law, in regard to real estate, but it is unnecessary on this occasion. It is true, that where the right of entry is tolled or taken away by any of the means pointed out by law, an indictment for for cible entry and detainer will not lie, but the party is driven to his action ; and one of these means is a descent cast—-another is the statute of limitations, &c. But in order to constitute a descent which will tell an entry, the possession of the ances tor must have been rightful, because by the 32d Hen. 8. chap. 33, a wrongful dis seisin is no descent in law, and therefore no descent is cast upon the heirs of Stan ton Porter, so as to bar the right of entry of Pierson Petit. 2d. The second ground is very plausi ble, and at first produced some difficulty in my mind: but the verdict having found the force, and the judgment on-the crimi nal side ot the Court having been pre vented by the death of the person on whom alone it could operate, is no reason why thejudgment of restitution on the ci vil side ot this Court should not be award ed. For although restitution should not be granted without calling the defendant to answer for himself, (3 Bac. Ab. 250) yet in this case the defendant was called, and answered to the indictment, and was convicted of the force, upon which con viction the prosecutor is entitled to resti tution. And although by the death of the wrong-doer, the criminal judgment of tbs Court which would act in personam cannot be applied, yet I can see no good reason why the civil judgment which acts in rem should not be pronounced, though the wrong-doer be dead. It has been said that if judgment of restiiution he a- warded, those persons now in possession will be ousted without an opportunity of being heard; but this will not avail, be cause if it would, then a party forcibly put out of possession, culd never obtain res- ti'.ution, for on conviction of the defendant all that would be necessary to prevent restitution would be to put another in pos session, and thereby completely defeat the operation of the salutary statutes go verning such cases. The party injured would not indict him because he came into possession peaceably under another, and he would be driven to his action ot ejectment. See 2 Bay’s Rep. 355. 3d. The third ground is, that the pro secutor was the princ pal witness ; and a decision of the Courts of North Caro lina cited in Norris’s Peake, which de clares that the person entitled to restitu tion cannot be u witness in the prosecu tion for a forcible entry and detainer, is relied on in support of this objection.— But I cannot see its applicability, for al though on sucii objection made at the trial to the competency of the prosecutor as a witness, he might be repelled on the ground of interest, vet as he was admitted, and a conv iction had, it is no sufficient ob jection to stay the judgment on either side of the Court. And indeed I am dis posed to doubt the soundness of the doc trine, for if the party forcib-y put out of possession cannot be a witness, there would be but few cases in which this re medy could be applied. 4th, The fourth ground comes too late; for it does not appear that the defendant made any plea of three years possession in bar of restitution at the time when the motion was made for restitution, and such judgment being a matter of course under the statute of 8, Hen. 6, ch. 9. unless such plea is made, the death of the wrongdoer cannot be permitted to work an injury t<> ihe party entitled by the conviction, to restitution. 5th, The fifth and last ground may be disposed of in the same way as the fourth. For even admitting that grounds for a new trial were filed, (which does not ap pear of record.) the defendant being dead, they cannot be argued, and no order could be taken on them, and the conviction still standing on the record, unquashed aod un- reversed, is in full force and virtue, and the judgement of restitution may well be awarded. Motion granted. Let a writ of restitution issue. Petit, for the motion, Reid, against it. FRESH PERFUMERY, Cosmetics, Fancy Soaps, Spe.
