r-aciirT f r—r" uM fc. Ulrrklo JatfUigmcrr. Veto of the Star Low. Ekcctive Departxxnt I MHlegerille, Ga., March 6th, 1666. f To the Senate: I [living given serious consideration to “a bill t« be entitled nn act for the relief of the people of Georgia. anil to present the levy and sale of property under certain circumstances, and within n limited period,” which originate'! in your body, with more than ordinary anxiety, if possible to concur with the General Assembly in the pro priety of its enactment, I am constrained to re turn it without approval. The Constitution of the United States ex pressly ordains that “no State shall pass any law immuring the obligation, of contracts." The application of this provision to the act under consideration involves two inquiries: First, What is meant by the obligation of a contract? Secondly, What constitutes an im pairment of it? A projier coasideration of the subject requires a distinction lietwccn a contract and its obliga tion The former is “an agreement to do or not to do a particular thing. The latter is that which binds the promisor to perform liis agree ment. Wc often speak of a moral obligation to perform a promise, the sanction of which is found in a pure and enlightened conscience. But it is evidently not this which the Constitution was de signed to save from impairment, because it is simply impossible for legislative action to change the dictate of conscience regarding any antece dent duty which one person may owe to an other. We sjjeak, also, of the legal obligation of a contract, by which is meant the force of law, compelling its performance or giving an equiva lent after its breach. In arguing the case of Og den vs. Sanders, Mr. Webster remarked, “the mu nicipal Inr is the force of society, employed, to compel the jietforinanee of contracts." This force consists of all the means provided by law, to enable the promisee, without disturbing the peaceof society, to compel the performance, by a reluctant prom isor. of his engagement. Titus understood it-is clear that the Legislature, if unrestrained, would be capable of impairing or destroying the obliga- i ion ; and it is precisely to guard it, that this pro hibition was inserted in t lie Constitution. The question then is presented, whether or not this act against the intendment of the Con tinuum, impairs the obligation of contracts. It provides “ that there shall be no levy or sale or properly of defendants in this State under any execution founded on any judgment, order of decree, of any court heretofore, or hereafter to be rendered, upon any contract or liability made or Incurred prior to the 1st of June, 1865, prodded the said defendant shall pay or cause to be paid during eacii year one-fourth of Ihc amount of principal and interest of such execu tion, or of the debt or claim, on which aucli ex- eeut+on lias been or may be hereafter be obtained, so that tlie entire indebtedness, shall be paid in four years from the lirst day of January—the first instalment to be paid by the first ot Janua ry, 1867, and the fourth and last by the first of January, 1870.” Any other levying or selling is made liable for a trespass. Here we remark that tin- prohibition of the Constitution is not direct ed solely against the destruction of the obliga tion. 11 is not that no State shall pass any law i/> straying the obligation. Were it so expressed, however impolitic or unjust it might be, in any Htipposable case fo impair without destroying it, the Constitution could not be interposed as a bar rier to such action. But it is explicitly against im pairment that the prohibition is directed. The intention being negative, not positive—prohibi tory not mandatory, the lesser interference is ex pressed, because being included in the greater, its prevention prevents both. Hence it appears that something more was intended than to keep t he obligation alive, which is all that can be claimed fora stay law. lift it be borne in mind, that the obligation of a contract is the. force of law, compelling its per formance, or (jiving satisfaction for its breach.— This force lms a two-fold operation. First, it acts judicially, whereby the existence of the con tracts, its breach and the mode of enforcement tire determined, all of which are expressed in the judgment. Secondly, it acts ministerially, wherein, under command in writing, an officer of law, either transfers certain specific property from the possession of the promisor to that of the promisee, or converts into money, in a mode prescribed, such portion of the promisor’s pio- perty ns will satisfy the judgment, and delivers it to the possessee. This done, the obligation ot t he contract is consumatcd—its performance is enforced. But if, when the judgment shall have been rendered, and the next step which according to the law which creates obligation, is to issue this written authority (called an execution,) without which the judgment would be valueless, the State shall pass a law forbidding the issuance for one year; or, if, after it shall have been passed, the proper officer is forbidden to execute it, with in a year, whtit effect has this legislation upon tlic obligation V Wc arc told the effect, is to suspend it, leaving it vitally untouched. True by the terms of the law vitality remains, but does thi9 satisfy the Constitution ? Is there no dimunition, no weakening, no impairment of the force of the law compelling performance? Lexicographers tell us that to impair, is to “di minish—to injure—to lessen in value." Suppose A bought a judgment against B—and C to ob tain another against D, at the same time each founded on contract, and both according to the general law, -whence the obligation of the con tracts spring, capable of immediate execution.— Then suppose the Legislature to intervene, and enact that the former shall not be executed with in one year, leaving the latter untouched, would there be no difficulty in tlic relative strength of the two obligations? A man in paralysis has vitali ty as positive as he has in good health; yet it is impaired. So A’s judgment lias an obligation, but it is paralyzed, “wakened," “diminished" by file temporary loss of its active quality, and therefore impaired. In executory contracts, time is always an im portant element It will probably be conceded that it would be unconstitutional for the General Assembly to enact that no promissory notes here tofore made, and to mature on the first day of January, 1867, shall be considered clue, and pay able before the first day of January, 1868. If this be so it is difficult to perceive how the con stitutionality of the act can be maintained. If the day of payment may not be postponed before maturity by legislative action, it would seem “a fortiorC" that it may not be after maturity; or, rather, that the contract may not be throw n back into immaturity, and a new day of payment ap pointed by such action. Pursuing the line of ar gument, the right of the promisee does not lose its character of contract by the institution of a suit, nor bv the rendition of a judgment to en force it. That character abides, and to it the constitutional guaranty adheres until it is either extinguished by performance or smothered by a statute of repose. Indeed, this act specially 're fers to contracts in judgment and to their dates. Hence I conclude the Legislature has no more power to appoint a new and distant day of pay ment after suit commenced or judgment rendered than before. In all other respects the promisee’s condition is considered better after judgment; why worse in this? Before judgment is "impor tant to compel immediate performance of the contract. The judgment makes that will the mo tive power of the obligation, for by it the execu tion—ihc final process—may be put in actiou.— But, by legislation of this character, that motive power is suspended—temporarily abstracted trom the obligation. Perpetual injunction would de stroy the obligation, quo ad. the action ol this State; and I cannot resist the conclusion that temporary injunction would impair it. Again, the judguieut and execution which are intended to be the consummation, or end of the obligation, are lawful subjects of traffic, are sale : able commodities. It is indisputable that the possession, and exercise by' the Legislature of the power of suspending their operation, would “les sen their mind’ as such; and this brings such legislation within another definition ot impair ment, viz : it “h*sens the value." If one Legislature may postpone for a year, each subsequent one may do the same. Already have the judgments affected by this act been suspended five years by such action. Upon principle, these successive postponements might as well be continued an hundred years or through all time. The hundredth would be as valid as any pre ceding one. But how, meantime, fares the obli gation ? The consolation offered to the pro misee, and repeated to successive generations of his posterity, would be, that it flourished in a green old age, its strength unimpaired by time. The strength of the argument in favor of stay laws lies in the proposition, that final process i's but a part of the remedy which must always be within the power of the, Legislature; otherwise, it would he impossible to correct errors in juris prudence or to improve the system as experience may develop its effects. The power of the Leg islature to modify remedies, even at the cost of delay to suitors, then in court, must be consid ered, but with two qualifications: First, the intention must be bona fide to change permanently, and to improve the system.— Secondly, this must always be done, if possible, so as to act to affect injuriously antecedent riglhs. This act cannot be brought within either of them. First, it contemplates neither any im provement nor any permanent change of the judicial system. Sections 3553 to 3557, and sec tion 336 of the Revised Code, regulate proceed ing after judgment in suits to enforce contracts. It is obviously not the intention of the General Assembly to make any change in these, further than to suspend them for a time in the class of cases described in the act. No other course of proceeding is substituted—judgments rendered for special purposes are excepted—and none ™?- v hereafter "be rendered on contracts {if, after consideration, which I rcspectftiHv in- “f tirst^day of June, 1865, are in- vite, a constitutional majority of the General As sembly should adhere to the measure, I shall in dulge the hope that no detriment will come to the State, either from its seemingly unequal eluded in the stay. In such cases, therefore, the courses of the law will be the same as liereto- fore. kecoruBg, if the change were permanent— if it contemplated just such a stay of execution, under judgments to be obtained, founded on con tracts made since the first day of June last, the office of sheriff is nevertheless continued; and, therefore, all judgments founded on contracts heretofore made might be executed as well as in times past, and the obligation of the contract he unaffected; but in point of fact the bill not only affects them, but injuriously discriminates against Here, then, is plenary evidence that it is not one of those great reformatory measures, design ed to improve the judicial system, for the per manent advantage of the body politic—that in truth it makes no change in the system, but only withdraws for a time from a certain class of con tracts its obligatory operation. It is a temporary expedient, interposed between the debtor and creditor for the relief of the former. It postpones G>r one year absolutely, and for tour conditionally the full performance of all the contracts entered into before the first of June last, and in my opin ion as llagrantly violates the Constitution as if it affected contracts running to maturity, by post poning the day of payment one or four years be yond that fixed by the terms of each. The course of reasoning adopted, the princi ples affirmed, and the rules of construction ap plied to this clause of the Constitution by the Su preme Court ot the United States in several cases, seem to me to lead to this conclusion, although in none of them were the Legislative act reviewed identical in their provisiens with this. These I shall simply state without quoting from them.— They are Sturges vs. Browningsbield, 4th Wheat on, 122; Green vs. Biddle, 8tii Wheaton, 1; Og den, vs. Sanders, 12th, Wheaton, 213; Bronson vs. Kinzee, 1 Howard, 311; McCracken vs. Hay ward 2 Howard, 608. In tiiese cases, stay laws are, by way of illus tration, more than once referred to as violating tliis clause of the Constitution. In the first, Chief Justice Marshall, who bore a part in the pro ceedings for the adoption of the Constitution, ex presses tlic opinion that the passing of such laws by the States was one of the chief causes which induced the insertion of this clause. Judge Par sons, at page 703, of the 2d volume of his author itative treatise ou contracts, affirm the proposi tion, its established by authority, that “an exemp tion of property from attachment (by which is meant levy) or a subjection of it to a stay law or appraisement law, impairs the obligation of the contract." He adds: “Such a statute can be en forced only as to contracts made subsequently to the law.” There tire, I concede, cases supporting the op posite conclusion, but I think they are sustained neither by the weight of authority nor by the force of logic. Our own Constitution contains a clause simi lar to that quoted from the Constitution of the United States. But it is not alone this duplicate prohibition which, in my opinion, precludes leg islation of this character. The first clause of the first section of the second article of the Constitu tion of Georgia is in these words: “The Legisla tive, Executive and Judicial departments shall be confided to a separate body of magistracy. No person, or collection of persons, being of one de partment, shall exercise any power properly attach ed to either of the others, except in cases herein ex pressly excepted. It is to the latter sentence I per tinently refer. The investigation and determi nation of private rights; the enforcement of con-’ tracts between individuals when one of the par ties refuses compliance, and clearly powers pro perly belonging to the judicial department Their exercise is invoked by suit in court, which, being instituted, is properly under the control of that department, from the filing of the petition to the return of final process, executed; when, for the purpose of preventing wrong or oppression, or of doing full and complete justice in any case, it becomes necessary to arrest the proceeding. Whether before or after judgment, this can only be done by the writ of injunction, and that issues properly out of Chancery, which appertains ex clusively to the judicial department. What are the rights upon which the bill under considera tion acts ? They are those which have been as serted by suits in courts of justice; have beep those investigated and adjudicated, and which those courts are proceeding to enforce by their final process, called executions. What action does this bill propose upon them ? It does not, indeed, set them aside—annul them, but it sus pends action under them for a specified time. What is this suspension but an injunction of a judicial proceeding? The form of the writ used in the department to which the power properly belongs, is not observed, but the precise end is attained; the injunction is as effectually imposed as if a writ in due form had emated from the leg islative source. Let us look a little more in detail into this mutter. A writ called an execution issues from the Jnfcrioi Court of Baldwin county directed to the sheriff, commanding him to make by levy and sale of the property of C_D one hundred dollars, which A B lately in that court recover ed of him, aud further that he return that writ into court tit the next term, which means in law, that he return it executed. If the sheriff do not make the money as required, he may, at the re turn term of the writ, be ruled and compelled to pay it himself, unless he can show good cause tor his failure. This is the course of the law, and tiiis its end. But suppose when so called on he should exhibit a writ, sued out of the Chan cery side of the Superior Court of Baldwin coun ty, at the suit of C D, commanding him to desist front levy and sale, under that particular execu tion, until the further order of the court; he stands justified because he is enjoined. One branch of the judicial department, armed by law with the power, has arrested another, and no violence is done to the constitution. But suppose, instead of exhibiting a writ of injunc tion from the Superior Court, he should exhibit an act ot the Legislature forbidding him to exe cute within a year, any./? .fa. issued by any court. If he be excused, on what ground ? Clearly that he was enjoined. That the judicial injunction, in the one case was in the exercise of “a power properly attached” to the judicial department cannot possibly be denied. Then how can it lie maintained that the imposition of the legislative injuction, in the other case, would be conformable to the provisions of the Constitution I have quoted. It is not manifest that such legislation produces direct collision between the depart ments? The mandate issued by the judicial de partment was in strict conformity with the laws of the State. Without repealing those let*,’?, without permanently curtailing powers ot the courts, the legislative department simply in terrenes and forbids the ministerial officer obey ing the judicial mandate. It was for the express purpose of preventing such conflict this provision was inserted in the Constitution. There is another objection to the bill which I cannot pass over in silence. It classifies con tracts and discriminates between the classes, in juriously to one of them, or rather to the parties interested in their enforcement. Contracts made prior to the first day of June, 1865, constitute oue class, those made subsequently, another.— To the former only is the stay ot execution, un der it, applied. If separate judgments should be obtained in the month of January, 1867, the oue founded on a contract entered into before the first day of June, 1865, and the other on a contract made after the last mentioned day, even though they were based upon considerations equally meritorious, the stay of this law would attach to the former, and not to the latter. I am utterly at a loss to conjecture upon what principle, consistent with equal justice, this discrimination is founded. Indeed it would seem that if any discrimination were made, it should be in favor of that class of creditors, a very large majority of whom have already been subjected to five of these legislative injunctions, successively enacted, and so linked, as to composes chain, extending over as many years. The elder creditor is tied up and the junior left untrameled; nay more, the judgment creditor of five or more years standing is arrested, whilst to the simple contract creditor of yesterday, the highway to full and complete compulsory performance is left open. It may be said that whenever a junior execution, not stayed by the proposed law, shall l»y levy and sale cause money to be made, the older exe cutions are not restrained from being interposed to claim it. But this can scarcely be intended, for in that event, the law must fail to give the promised relief. Under any circumstances, this could only occur where there were judgments of both classes against the s^rne debtor, and the suggestion therefore does not-relieve the measure from the alleged discrimination. Even in those cases the debtor would be under a strong temp tation to apply his means to the satisfaction of the junior judgment, reserving for the senior only the annual instalment necessary to keep hint in fetters, and thus the discrimination would still operate injuriously. I take no pleasure iit the performance of this duty. Always reluctant to disagree with the General Assembly, I can truly say this disagree ment is painful in the extreme. I have abun dant sympathy for the suffering people of Geor gia, and in the desire of the General Assembly ■ to alleviate their sufferings. But on entering this office I took at the threshold, in presence of you all, a solemn oath to preserve, protect and "de fend the Constitution of the United States, and of the State of Georgia; aud this I must do, as I, not as others understand those instruments.— If I doubted I would give the measure the bene fit of the doubt and leave its constitutionality to the courts; but, not doubting, I must dissent as 1 regard my oath. Upon such subjects, men equally earnest in search of truth, and equal ly upright, and fair, in their habits of thought, are prone to differ. Whenever such a dif ference occurs, it becomes each party to ex tend to the other the meed of upright intention. practical operation or from its imputed violation of the fundamental law.
