COLUMBIA SUPERIOR COURT. >
March Term. 1826 ^
Cvlbrrafh etal. vs. Ueggie rtal.
\ Pill in Equity will not lie foreview or set a-
.lie tlic judgment of n Court of law.
This was a bill in equity, entitled a bill
f review, and the object of the bill was,
• o set aside a decision made bv Judge
Montgomery, whilst Judge of this Court,
In the matter of Mary M’Neil’s ^ 61.—--
Tbe Will was propounded and proved in
the Com r of Ordinary, from the decision
of which Court the caveators appealed to
this Court. Upon the appeal, Judge
Montgomery assumed to himself,as “ Su
preme Judge of Probates,” the righ* of
deciding upon 11 ie sanity of ihe testatrix,
ami her equal capacity to make a Will;
without the i itervention of a Jury to try
thr fact, and being of opinion from the
evidence that she was incapable, lie de
clared thni she (lied intestate and without
Will. The complainants now seek to
have this judgement reversed, and a new
trial ordered before a Jury on the ground
that the Judge had no right to determine
the facts, when he bad a Jury at com
mand who alone were competent to deter
mine an issue of fact. To this bill there
js a general demurrer for want of equity.
Ev tut. Court—This bill is entitled a
bill of review, and technically speaking,
such bill lies only to review some former
decree of a Court of Equity, made upon
some former bill in such Court, but is not
applicable to rases at law. If this bill be
intended to obtain a commission of review,
to which it has been attempted to be as
similated, it is equally untechnical ; for to
obtain such commission, not a bill, but a
petition is a proper mode. This bill,
then, cannot be sustained as a bill of re
view, because there is no subject matter
„ upon which it can operate^ nor can it ho
entertained as a petition foi a commission
of review, because this Court, (die Courf
if Equity,) even in England, has nopow-
r to present such petition, cr grant such
commission.

ments of personal property in England,

name of Ecclesiastical Courts, in which

rounds of interference by a Court of j collusion, it may be set aside in the same
quity are three—fraud, accident, and
mistake ; and when a party taking advan
tage in a Court of law, which such Court
had no power to prevent, the Chancery
may interfere by restraining the party,
who in good conscience ought not to use
Mich undue advantage.—(Mtt. I’lea. 116,
2 Dessau. Hep. in note 358.)—But in such
case there is no attempt to impugn the
decision of the Court of law, or in any j
way to impeach or set it aside. And even
fraud.in obtaining a Will cannot be direct
ly enquired into and relieved against in
Equity. If the Will be of real estate, it
must be referred *o a Court of law in the
shape of*an issue deoisavit vel non, and
if of personal property, it must be deter
mined bv the spiritual Courts.—(2 Dessau.
Rep. 356, 3 Bro. Par. Cas. 358.)—Yet
in case of fraud, St.c. a Co.irt'of Equity'
will convert the person practising the
fraud into a trustee, lor those in justice
entitled to the property. See the cases
to this point collected in a note to I aimer
vs. Mikell, 2 Dessau. Rep. 356.
The only cases which we have^ been
able to find, in which a Court of Equity
has interfered with the probate of a Will,
are two, and may he found in 2 Dessau.,
Rep. 113, 142. These were cases of
fraud in obtaining the Will, and in both
the Will had been proved before the Or
dinary without opposition ; those persons
in Interest having been unable at the time
to appear and contest the matter. In
these cases the Court decreed, that the
party who had obtained the probate
should consent to a revocation of it, and
let the cause be tried de novo when all the
parties could be heard ; but expressly de
clared that it had tio power to infringe the
jurisdiction of the Ordinary. But those
cases and the one at bar, are altogether
dissimilar. Jn those rases there was
frnild ns a ground of interference of the
Court. Here none is charged, and if there
be any it is not with the defendants, but
must have been with those claiming under
the Will. There the parties opposed to
the Will bad no opportunity of being
beard, or of appealing from the Ordinary
tt) the Circuit Court of law. Here, both
parties were heard before the Ordinary,
and from the decision of that Court an ap
peal was brought to the Superior Court,
which is the final appellate jurisdiction,
where all the parties were again heard,
and a final decision made bv that Court.

Chancery has nothing to do with the mat

it it be granted, certain commissioners are

It will not, I presume, be contended
that the Executive <»f this State possesses
any such prerogative as that above-men

I believe <lie decisiop t>f Judge Mont
gomery in refusing to submit the facts to
a Jury was wtong, and I regret that I
have not the power to revetse it and let
the matler go to a Jury ; but it is not for
me to make the law, it is my business to
declare it as J find if.
The modes of provin? M ills of real,
and testaments of personal property, in
England, are clearly laid down in the
books, and it would seem, coul 1 not be
mistaken. Wills of real property are like
deeds, and require no probate, except
when it is necessary to use them as titles
in ejectment or other action, and then
they must be proved before the Jury as
any oilier deeds. To this rule, however,
there are som*exceptions, as for instance,
where ihe devisee or the heir at law has
no opportunity of having the validity of
the Will tried at law, and fears that at
some future time the Will may be im
peached, or attempted to be setup, (asthe
case may be,) and such like cases. In
such cases application mav he made to
Chancery, who will direct a feigned issue
to a Court of law, in order to have the
matter tried, and upon the verdict of such
French Paper Hangings.
