Book excerpt: Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Forms and Precedents for Pleading and Practice, at Common Law, in Equity, and Under the Various Codes and Practice Acts, Vol. 1 The encyclopedia OF forms completes the encyclopaedic arrangement of the law as originated by mr. James cockcroft, under whose supervision the development of the scheme has been attended by unprecedented success. His first undertaking, the American and English Encyclopaedia of Law, which covered the field of substantive law and Evidence, has won a position never before occupied by a work upon the law and is looked upon to-day as authority in all English-speaking countries. His next work, the Encyclopaedia of Pleading and Practice, is rapidly approaching a distinction equal to that of the American and English Encyclopaedia of Law. And the editors of his latest and final undertaking, the encyclopedia OF forms, feel assured that it will be a worthy companion to its two great predecessors. The purpose of this work is to supply, in a convenient and easily accessible arrangement, a complete collection of the forms which are necessary to the lawyer in the practice of his profession. Many books of forms have been published, but heretofore no attempt has been made to give to the profession a collection so complete and accurate that. The lawyer can, at a moment's notice, find a form or precedent of almost any conceivable pleading or paper that he is called upon to draw. Investigation will show that the corresponding forms under the various systems of pleading and practice bear such intimate relation one to the other as to make it obligatory in a good form book to treat them all impartially. The forms used under the various codes are often identical in substance; or, if not, are SO alike in principle and mechanism that an approved precedent or adjudicated form in one jurisdiction is of incalculable value in other jurisdictions where no such approval or adjudication has been had.
